This paper reviews the historical development of the perimeter, focusing on the different types of perimeter of the principle and scope of application, and introduced several new perimeter. Perimetry is the measurement of retinal spot gaze beyond the vision that is in terms of peripheral vision. Perimetry can be divided into monocular and binocular visual field perimetry, our common vision for the monocular visual field examination. Is generally believed that if the subjects field of vision scope and the range of visual ability and a normal healthy person the same shall be the normal field of vision [1]. Perimetry workers for eye diagnosis and follow-up of the major blinding eye tracking provides important information. Needless to say, vision screening is the diagnosis and monitoring of glaucoma and other vision, optic nerve diseases, the basic method. Advanced perimetry for early diagnosis and close monitoring of the development of these diseases possible, while creating conditions for successful treatment. An overview of vision goes back to the 5th century BC, to the vision that is when the eye is fixed before the fixation when the surrounding region of space close to see. The 17th century discovered Mariotte blind spot of the optic papilla and physiological relations, and therefore became the first description of a special dark spots people. 1801 Thomas Yang the first real measure of the horizon [2]. Mid-19th century, Forster has designed the first arc perimetry [3], such a vision check the perimeter will be expanded to 450, and measured out the vision of the outside world. Bjerrum (1889) invented the Tangent and dynamic multi-vision screen, such as line of sight perimeter. The 20th century, Ferree and Rand [4] developed the early work of Forster,
