FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: photostimulus is supplied into a limited sector of a visual field at a visual angle of 45 degrees. The assessment procedure is performed in four main meridians of the visual field with the photostimulus successfully presented from a maximum to minimum position of 40 degrees, 20 degrees and 10 degrees along the perimeter arch with recording an encephalogram; the detected visual induced potentials testify to the presence of vision in the sector which corresponds to the presented position of the photostimulus.

EFFECT: method enables reducing the assessment time accompanied by the objective detection of the local disorders of the visual field for the purpose of the medical-social evaluation by supplying the photostimulus to the limited sector of the visual field in a combination with recording the visual induced potentials on the encephalogram.
