This study found binocular glaucoma defects often appear near Mariotte blind spots and bitemporal areas, progressing differently than monocular defects, which is crucial for assessing real-world vision.

Mouse optic nerve crush revealed early activation of apoptotic genes, including Atf3, Lcn2, and Tnfrsf12a, in retinal ganglion cells. These genes may be crucial targets for glaucoma neuroprotection.

This study found that for macular glaucoma testing, SAP with target size I and function-specific perimetry (especially Matrix) correlate better with retinal nerve damage than standard SAP size III.

This study found individual variations in optic disc and temporal raphe positions alter 10-2 visual field mapping, meaning some inferior test points can represent the anatomical superior hemifield. This impacts structure-function correlation in glaucoma.

High-resolution perimetry (test points <1.5 degrees) is crucial for detecting subtle central visual field defects in glaucoma, improving early detection and monitoring.

Program K, a new automated kinetic perimetry algorithm, showed good agreement with manual methods in detecting glaucoma visual field loss, offering an efficient clinical tool.

This study compared perimetry types and OCT for early glaucoma detection. Flicker perimetry and OCT, particularly retinal nerve fiber layer thickness, showed high detectability, aiding early diagnosis and management.
