Visual field printouts

I attend Moorfields glaucoma clinic and am finding it impossible to get printouts of my visual fields and OCTs. It makes sense for me to keep all records of my test results but whoever I ask there, including the VF technicians, is unable to help. I've tried taking pix of my VFs when they're up on the screen at my appt, but they're not as accurate as getting a printout. Anyone else in a similar position who can advise? Many thanks.

About 5 years ago I wanted a complete copy of my hospital records as I was not happy with the treatment I was receiving and I wanted to be able to give my new doctor a record of my treatment. I paid about 20 pounds to get a complete copy of my records from the hospital, including printouts of visual fields tests. I found this very useful.

I liv in Solihull and come under the University of Birmingham NHS Trust. The records were kept at Heartlands Hospital. I think I made a request via the hospital website. I would ask the PALS service at your hospital how to get your records. I’m pretty sure you will have to pay to get them.
