Evaluation of Visual Field Progression in Glaucoma
نویسندگان
چکیده
Detection of visual field progression is of critical importance in the management of patients with glaucoma; however, there is no agreed upon set of criteria for the definition of progression. The most commonly utilized method of progression detection in clinical practice may be subjective assessment of serial visual fields. Event-based and trend-based approaches to the analysis of serial visual field data are quite powerful and used in clinical practice and in clinical research. Recent advances in analysis of visual field progression are discussed in this review article.

Investigating the effects of glaucomatous (POAG) damage on the mVEP parameters
Introduction: Glaucoma is considered as a major cause of irreversible vision loss, worldwide. Glaucoma includes a diverse ophthalmopathies characterized by attenuating the neural and connective tissue segments and eventually progression of specific patterns of visual dysfunction. Currently, perimetry is known as the most accurate diagnostic method in glaucoma and its follow up...

OBJECTIVES To examine the prognosis for the fellow eye of patients with severe visual field loss in 1 eye from chronic forms of open-angle glaucoma, and to identify risk factors for visual field progression in such eyes. METHODS Review of 36 patients followed in an academic medical center with monocular severe visual field loss (Advanced Glaucoma Intervention Study score > or =12) from open-a...
متن کاملPointwise linear regression analysis for detection of visual field progression with absolute versus corrected threshold sensitivities.
PURPOSE To compare the performance of point-wise linear regression analysis (PLR) with total deviation (TD) versus corrected or pattern deviation (PD) threshold sensitivities for detection of visual field progression. METHODS Four hundred two eyes (402 patients) enrolled in the Advanced Glaucoma Intervention Study (AGIS) were selected. Criteria for progression according to PLR were a slope<or...
متن کاملCirculating platelet aggregates and progression of visual field loss in glaucoma.
The aim of the study was to assess a relationship between circulating platelet aggregates (CPA) and progression of visual field loss in primary open-angle glaucoma patients. CPA was determined in 27 patients with open-angle glaucoma with nonprogressive visual field loss and 15 patients with open-angle glaucoma and progression of visual field loss. Intraocular pressure (IOP) under topical therap...
متن کاملCorrelation between the progression of optic disc and visual field changes in glaucoma.
Visual field test and optic disc evaluation are the standard examination techniques used to detect the onset and progression of glaucoma. This explorative study was performed to assess the temporal correlation between visual field and optic disc changes in eyes with ocular hypertension and well-established glaucoma. Eighty-six hypertensive and 16 glaucomatous eyes were followed up for a period ...
