A major milestone has been reached in digital eye care. Virtual Field by Micro Medical Devices, the global leader in virtual reality visual field testing, has now surpassed three million completed patient exams.
This achievement reflects far more than a high-volume benchmark. It represents a global shift in how eye care professionals perform, interpret, and manage functional vision testing. As the demand for portable, accurate, and patient-friendly diagnostics grows, Virtual Field continues to lead the movement with advanced virtual reality technology and clinical-grade precision.
Three million tests delivered. Countless patients helped. A new chapter in efficient and accessible eye care.
1. A Global Breakthrough in Functional Vision Testing
Reaching more than three million tests across hospitals, clinics, and mobile programs confirms that virtual perimetry is rapidly becoming the preferred choice in both developed and emerging regions.
Key Highlights
🌎 Used in over 50 countries across North America, Europe, and Asia
🧠 Adopted by optometrists, ophthalmologists, and retina specialists
👩⚕️ Clinically validated against gold-standard bowl perimeters
⚙️ Scales easily for high-volume and multi-location practices
Virtual Field empowers clinicians everywhere to deliver faster, more reliable diagnostics in any care environment.
2. Why Virtual Field Has Become the New Industry Standard
Traditional perimetry often requires dark rooms, patient stabilization, and long tests. Virtual Field solves these challenges with a portable VR headset that modernizes functional testing.
What Sets Virtual Field Apart
- Lightweight and mobile for testing in any space
- Exams completed in under five minutes per eye
- No chin rest, dark room, or complex setup
- Real-time gaze tracking and AI-powered precision
- EMR and cloud-based connectivity for streamlined workflows
VR perimetry brings clinical accuracy and convenience together in one modern solution.
3. The Rising Demand for Accessible Eye Diagnostics
The global increase in glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, and age-related vision conditions has created a need for scalable functional testing. Many clinics, especially in rural or underserved areas, lack access to traditional perimetry systems.
Virtual Field addresses this gap with portable, cost-effective visual field testing that adapts to virtually any clinical setting.
Areas Making a Significant Impact
- Rural and remote health networks
- Mobile eye care programs
- School vision screenings
- Senior living and assisted-care facilities
- Ophthalmology training programs
Virtual Field delivers diagnostics directly to the communities that need them most.
4. Virtual Field Works Seamlessly with Modern Ophthalmic Tools
While Virtual Field provides functional testing, its value increases when paired with structural imaging and corneal diagnostics such as biometry, Pachymetry, Keratometer, and B Scan.
Integration Benefits
| Diagnostic Tool | Purpose | Virtual Field Role |
|---|---|---|
| Biometry / A Scan | Measures axial length | Links structural data with functional performance |
| B Scan | Evaluates posterior anatomy | Tracks functional recovery alongside anatomical changes |
| Pachymetry | Measures corneal thickness | Supports precise IOP evaluation for glaucoma cases |
| Keratometer | Evaluates corneal curvature | Enhances refractive accuracy in diagnostic workflows |
| CXL | Strengthens corneal structure | Provides pre- and post-treatment functional comparison |
Together, these tools create a complete diagnostic picture.
5. Data Insights from Three Million Exams
With millions of complete tests, Virtual Field contributes to one of the world’s largest datasets for functional vision analysis.
Key Trends Observed
- Earlier detection of glaucoma-related defects through AI pattern analysis
- Stronger correlation between diabetic retinopathy and central vision loss
- Clear mapping of functional recovery following retinal and corneal procedures
- Insight into demographic patterns in visual field stability
Each test contributes to a smarter, more informed global vision health network.
6. The Patient Experience: Comfort That Enhances Accuracy
Traditional perimetry can be stressful for elderly or low-vision patients. Virtual Field changes the experience through an immersive, intuitive VR environment.
Why Patients Prefer It
- Comfortable headset that works with glasses
- Shorter testing times reduce fatigue
- Natural fixation helps improve focus
- Quiet, intuitive design reduces anxiety
Better comfort leads to more reliable test results and improved patient cooperation.
7. Efficiency That Empowers Clinicians
In busy practices, speed and consistency are essential. Virtual Field supports both without adding workflow complexity.
Workflow Benefits
- No dedicated testing room required
- Easy for staff to learn and operate
- EMR-ready reports automatically coded for CPT 92081–92083
- Ideal for multi-location practices and mobile care
More tests, stronger revenue, and smoother operations.
8. Meeting the Global Eye Care Shortage
As the demand for vision care grows faster than the specialist workforce, Virtual Field plays an important role in expanding access. Portable VR perimetry supports outreach programs, remote care networks, and tele-ophthalmology.
Global Programs Supported
- WHO Vision 2030 initiatives
- Rural screening projects in Africa and Asia
- School-based myopia prevention efforts
- Mobile glaucoma programs across North America
Virtual Field is helping expand diagnostic capacity where it is needed most.
9. Innovation at Scale: What Comes Next
Reaching three million exams is only the beginning. Virtual Field continues to innovate with AI, cloud analytics, and expanded diagnostic integration.
Upcoming Enhancements
- AI models predicting glaucoma progression
- Remote tele-perimetry for at-home monitoring
- OCT and fundus imaging data correlation
- Advanced analytic integration with biometry, Pachymetry, and B-Scan
Virtual Field is evolving into a complete intelligent diagnostic ecosystem.
10. A Milestone That Defines the Future of Eye Care
Crossing the three-million-exam milestone reinforces Virtual Field’s leadership in virtual reality visual field testing. With clinical accuracy, patient-friendly design, and unmatched scalability, it sets a new standard for diagnostics.
From glaucoma management to post-CXL evaluation and from biometry correlation to B-Scan support, Virtual Field is shaping the next era of functional vision testing.
