TAG Episode 9 - Nov 22, 2009 (mp3 version)
In this episode, Dr Hom and I discuss things to consider in purchasing a Visual Field machine for your practice. We look at the choice based on the scope of your practice, networking, and sharing your data with colleagues. (See AAC version for complete show notes.)

The very first visual-field machine I used was the Octopus, when I was about 16, 20 odd years ago. Until I heard your episode, I thought I had remembered the name wrong. LOL!
Not sure the one my current ophthalmologist uses, but I’m glad to know I’m not the only one who stuck their head in an octopus!
