INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE USER’S GUIDE

The USER’S GUIDE is designed to help you understand the capabilities and operation of the Humphrey FDT Visual Field Instrument with Welc h Allyn ’s FREQUENCY DOUBLING TECHNOLOGY. To achieve satisfactory results, the operator should read this manual thoroughly before using the instrument. An FDT Quick Reference Guide is provided for the convenience of experienced operators.
INTRODUCTION

INSTRUMENT OVERVIEW

The FDT Vis ual Fi eld Ins tr um ent is an inno v ati v e, efficient, compact and affordable automated visual field testing instrument. Years of research and clinical trials of Welch Allyn’s patented FREQUENCY DOUBLING TECHNOLOGY have resulted in an instrument which provides rapid, clinically validated and user-friendly visual field testing.
Key features of the FDT Visual Field Instrument include:
Supra-threshold screening tests in less than 1 minute per eye
Full-threshold tests in approximately 4 minutes per eye
Easy to use; no special training is needed/minimal operator instruction
No corrective (trial) lens needed; patients can wear their own correction or none at all (must only be within 7D of patient’s refraction
No eye patch needed for the opposite (untested) eye - it’s automatically occluded
Not affected by ambient lighting - can be used in normal room lighting
Not affected by pupil size (as small as 2 mm)
Extensive age-normative reference database incorporated
World-class clinical validation by leading researchers in the field
Statist ically signific ant correlation to the Humphrey Field Analyzer
Software upgrade capability for future enhancements

INSTRUMENT COMPONENTS

The instrument has seven Buttons to control the operation of the instrument, located adjacent to the Operator’s Liquid Crystal Display (LCD).
Four BLUE Operator Buttons along the left side of the Operator LCD Display
A GREEN Cancel/Backup Button below the four BLUE Buttons
Two Operator LCD Display Contrast Adjustment Buttons (Down Arrow and Up Arrow) adjacent to the Contrast Symbol and directly below the LCD Operator Display
Further below the Operator LCD Display is a Paper Access Door which opens to provide access to the internal thermal printer for replacement of paper, when needed. The instrument has a sliding Patient Visor which aids in the selection of the eye to be tested and automatically occludes the opposite (untested) eye. Detachable Patient Response Button, Power Cord, and Calibration Cap are also provided.

FDT OVERVIEW

isolates a subset of retinal ganglion cell mechanisms in the magnocellular (M-cell) pathway.
FDT
These M-cells have large diameter fibers and comprise only 3% to 5% of all retinal ganglion cells. The damage of these cells in the disease process makes FDT efficient and effective for the detection of visual field loss.

OPERATING PROCEDURES

UNPACKING

This instrument is designed for use by anyone familiar with the operation as described in this manual; no special qualif ications are required. Anyone using this instrument shou ld read and understand the operating instructions manual before using t he instrument. Interpretation of the results should be performed only by appropriately trained eyecare professionals.
Open the shipping box by carefully cutting the pac king tape securing the top flaps of the box. Lift out the foam insert containing the Patient Response Button, Power Cord and extra roll of paper. Lift the instrument ou t of the remaini ng f oam ins ert b y graspi ng the ins tr umen t at the two cu touts pro v ided and set the instrument on a flat, stable surface. Remove the plastic bag from the FDT Visual Field Instrument. Use of an adjustable height chair and/or table is recommended when performing testing.
After you have unpacked the instrument and its components, confirm that you have received the following items in good condition:

Calibration

This instrument does not require scheduled calibration. The instrument calibration is checked each time the instrument is powered ON and at the start of each test to be sure the unit is properly calibrated. If the instrument detects the need for calibration, the Operator LCD Display will display a needs calibration warning. If not calibrated when the needs calibration warning is displayed, the unit will continue to operate normally until the unit reac hes the ca libra tion li mits. Once the c alibra tion l imits are rea ched, the unit will not operate normally until a calibration is completed successfully.
