Det perifera seendet mäts vid synfältsundersökning (perimetri). Hos patienter som drabbats av den vanliga ögonsjukdomen grön starr (glaukom) reduceras synen i olika områden av synfältet. Skadorna är ofPerimetric threshold examination is the most important method for diagnosing and monitoring patients with glaucoma. Such examination, however, is time-consuming and often difficult for the elderly patients in whom glaucoma is prevalent. Shorter test strategies have been proposed, but unfortunately also with lower test quality. By using new computer-intense techniques for acquisition and processing

Trafikbullers inverkan på sömnen har undersökts medelst EEG-, EOG- och EMG-registreringar på sju unga män (21-27 år) och sex äldre män (63-74 år) i deras vanliga hemmiljö längs hårt trafikerade vägar (trafikintensitet cirka 450 fordonspassager med toppbullernivå överstigande 40 dB (A) per natt).
