"The inaccessibility of the retinal blood ves-
sels precludes direct, noninvasive measure-
ments of retinal blood flow. Indirect optical
methods taking advantage of the visibility of
the retinal vasculature must be used. A variety
of methods have been applied.[...] Methods based on the perception of white
blood cells (WBCs) moving in retinal macu-
lar capillaries by means of the blue field
entoptic phenomenon. Macular capillary
blood flow is determined either by counting
the number of WBCs passing in a given time
through a single capillary 13 or by evaluating
the average number and speed of WBCs in
the field of observation using the blue field
simulation technique. [...]"
