Description Abnormal Humphrey Visual Field (HVF) testing in healthy adults can be the result of decreased mental alertness and vigilance, even with normal reliability indices. Methylphenidate is a stimulant intended for the treatment of Attention deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) which is also used for cognitive enhancement. Our aim was to evaluate the effect of methylphenidate on HVF testing in normal adults without ADHD.
