The toxic amblyopias: their classification, history, symptoms, pathology, and treatment . vision and the same general character of relative and absolutescotoma, the latter being joined with the peripheral contraction of the fieldof vision. Fields taken after twelve applications of galvanism. of partial and complete scotoma and the joining of thelatter with the peripheral contraction, save only thatthe central dark area was distinctly smaller than it hadbeen. The seances of electricity were continued, nitrate ofsilver was also given, and on the 23d of January thefield of vision presented the condition found in Fig. 11. It will be noted that the peripheral contraction is aboutthe same; that on the right side the central scotoma isdistinctly smaller, the area of partial scotoma beingabout the same size. The vision, however, now equalledD = 10, and the patient declared that the cloud was notso thick. 38 TOXIC AMBLYOPIAS. The field of vision (the electricity still being continued)shows about the same characteristics as those exhibited in the last diagram. See Fig. 12. Fig. Fields of vision taken about one month after those represented in Fig. 10. One point of interest in this case evidently is whetheror not it should be regarded as a case of toxic amblyopia.
