Vision which is restricted to the area directly in front of the eye.
Vision restricted to a narrow span straight ahead, with little peripheral vision at the sides.
Condition in which peripheral sight is diminished and vision is limited to the area in front of the eyes.
Sight that lacks vision to the sides and is tightly restricted to the center of the visual field. Tunnel vision can be caused by a number of eye diseases, including retinitis pigmentosa and advanced chronic glaucoma. It can also be caused by tumors of the pituitary gland, by strokes, and by mercury poisoning.
Visual acuity that is limited to the central visual field, for example, two to three degrees of visual radius.
Tunnel vision occurs when the field of peripheral vision narrows so much that only objects directly in front are clearly visible. This condition is most commonly a result of chronic glaucoma, which involves elevated pressure inside the eyeball. Another potential cause is retinitis pigmentosa, a degenerative condition affecting the retina.
The significantly narrowed field of vision often seen in individuals with hysteria.
