Is the Esterman test classified as "monocular" or "binocular"?

  1. Monocular only

  2. Binocular only

  3. Both monocular and binocular

  4. Neither monocular nor binocular

The correct answer is: Both monocular and binocular

The Esterman test is classified as both monocular and binocular because it is designed to assess visual fields for individuals with both types of vision. It incorporates elements where both eyes are tested together in certain phases, which is characteristic of a binocular approach, allowing for the evaluation of the combined visual fields. At the same time, it can be adapted for individual eye assessments, aligning with monocular testing methods. This dual classification makes the Esterman test versatile, as it can cater to varying needs depending on the patient’s specific visual conditions or testing requirements. It essentially measures peripheral vision, which can be effectively analyzed using both testing methods.
