This document discloses both a method for visual field examination that makes it possible to perform eye sensitivity examinations and an instrument that is configured to perform said method for visual field examination. The method is based on absolute conditions, i.e. absolute differences in the differential luminous thresholds between symmetrical points with respect to the vertical meridian or the horizontal meridian are used in this way, unlike with already-known methods, it is possible to study the symmetry and/or the harmony of the subjects themselves, without having to compare them to a reference population with all that this entails.
