French term or phrase: coupole lumineuse
Bullet in brochure about corneal topographer under the heading "Fiabilité et précision extrêmes":
"Petite coupole lumineuse pour une exploration plus large de la cornée périphérique."
Found several googles for "luminous cupola", but nothing overly convincing.
TIA for your help.

Automated perimetry exam - The patient sits in front of a concave dome with a target in the center. The eye that is not being tested is covered. A button is given to the patient to be used during the exam. The patient is set in front of the dome and asked to focus on the target at the center. A computer then shines lights on the inside dome and the patient clicks the button whenever a light is seen. The computer then automatically maps and calculates the patient's visual field. (See Perimetry for details.)
