For electrophysiological assessment of visual function using a head mounted stereo display (e.g. virtual reality goggles) for displaying a stimulus which is used to generate a retinal or cortical response. In particular, a method for objective electrophysiological assessment of visual function of at least one eye of a subject includes presenting a visual stimulus to at least one eye of the subject, recording at least one of a retinal response and, a cortical response generated as a result of the presenting; analyzing said response and, as a result of said analyzing, forming a map of the visual function of the at least one eye of the subject 6. The invention also relates to as system for such electrophysiological assessment.
