Artificial Daylight Illumination for Perimetric Study and General Office Use [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology, 1918
Abstract The methods of making artificial light to imitate daylight are mentioned, and the superior comfort of such illumination and its usefulness in giving normal color values are referred to. The advantage for perimetric tests is largely in the constancy of such illumination and its availability at all times.
