Sommario/riassunto

Perimetry Update 2002/03 contains a selection of paper presented at the 15th Visual Field Symposium of the International Perimetric Society (IPS) meeting held in Stratford upon Avon, England, from 26-30th June 2002. The meeting, titled 'Perimetry and Imaging in Shakespeare's Country', was hosted by Professor John Wild of Cardiff University.
