TitelDefinition of an absolute scotoma in the central visual field for driver license
DoelThe latest update of the criteria for driver license stipulate that the binocular central 20° (Group 1) or the binocular central 30° (Group 2) should be free of an absolute scotoma. However, no definition of an absolute scotoma is provided.

To provide guidelines for the ophthalmologists for the definition of an absolute scotoma when validating a driver license.
MethodesA literature search was conducted to look for definitions of an absolute scotoma in the central visual field in relation to driver licences.
ResultatenAn absolute scotoma in the central 20° or 30° of the binocular visual field should be examined with standard automated perimetry using the Esterman program or any other form of automated perimetry that allows to integrate the monoculair visual fields . The definition we propose: a minimum of 3 contiguous test locations, maximum 6° apart with a threshold of < 10 decibel (dB) in the binocular central visual field.
ConclusieCriteria for the definition of absolute scotomas in relation to a driver license are proposed and will be implemented in collaboration with CARA.
