Functional Visual Loss (FVL) is a decrease in visual acuity and/or visual field not caused by any organic lesion. It is therefore also called “nonorganic visual loss” (NOVL). This entity is considered within the spectrum of “conversion disorder”, malingering, somatic symptom disorder, and “factitious disorder”.
Mild –visual acuity worse than 6/12 to 6/18. Moderate –visual acuity worse than 6/18 to 6/60. Severe –visual acuity worse than 6/60 to 3/60. Blindness –visual acuity worse than 3/60.
Common types of visual impairmentLoss of Central Vision. The loss of central vision creates a blur or blindspot, but side (peripheral) vision remains intact. ... Loss of Peripheral (Side) Vision. ... Blurred Vision. ... Generalized Haze. ... Extreme Light Sensitivity. ... Night Blindness.
Types of visual impairmentLow visual acuity means vision between 20/70 and 20/400 with the best possible correction, or a visual field of 20 degrees or less.Blindness is defined as a visual acuity worse than 20/400 with the best possible correction, or a visual field of 10 degrees or less.More items...

The term 'low vision' in category H54 comprises categories 1 and 2 of the table, the term 'blindness' categories 3, 4 and 5, and the term 'unqualified visual loss' category 9.
Low vision generally refers to visual disorders that are caused by diseases that cannot be corrected by refraction (e.g., macular degeneration; retinitis pigmentosa; diabetic retinopathy, etc.). Visual loss: objective loss of visual acuity during a finite period attributable to an underlying disease.
History of vision problem. Personal condition of sight problem. Visual impairment. Clinical Information. Limitation in visual functions. Reduced ability to perceive visual stimuli. Vision considered to be inferior to normal vision as represented by accepted standards of acuity, field of vision, or motility.
Bitemporal hemianopsia (aka bitemporal heteronymous hemianopsia or bitemporal hemianopia) is the medical description of a type of partial blindness where vision is missing in the outer half of both the right and left visual field. It is usually associated with lesions of the optic chiasm, the area where the optic nerves from the right and left eyes cross near the pituitary gland.

Visual fields are examined by the use of static or kinetic perimetry. The procedure is performed separately for each eye, and measures the combined function of the retina, the optic nerve, and the intracranial visual pathway. It is used clinically to detect or monitor field loss due to disease at any of these locations.

A documented disorder of the optic nerve, the neurologic visual pathway, or retina. Patients with a previously diagnosed retinal detachment do not need a pretreatment visual field examination. Additionally, patients with an established diagnosed cataract do not need a follow-up visual field unless other presenting symptomatology is documented.
