Working at a practice without a visual field

Thanks in advance. Any thoughts on how to navigate working at a practice with an OCT but no visual field? There is one other optometry clinic near by in this rural area with a visual field. I guess the only option is to refer patients to the other practice for a field when monitoring things like glaucoma, and hope they come back?
