Risk Factors for Fast Visual Field Progression in Glaucoma.

In this cohort, older age, peak IOP, pseudoexfoliative glaucoma, and baseline MD were associated with the rate of glaucomatous VF worsening.

The relationship between central visual field sensitivity and macular ganglion cell/inner plexiform layer thickness in glaucoma.

Macular OCT/VF relationships have localised arcuate characteristics in the central region of the macula.

Predictors of Long-Term Visual Field Fluctuation in Glaucoma Patients.

This study identified novel predictors of VF fluctuation, and explains nearly 60% of the pointwise variance.

Cataract Surgery and Rate of Visual Field Progression in Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma.

Although all IOP parameters improved after cataract surgery, VFs continued to progress. Cataract surgery does not slow the apparent rate of glaucomatous VF decay as compared to rates measured during the progression of the cataract.

Quantification of Visual Field Variability in Glaucoma: Implications for Visual Field Prediction and Modeling.

VF variability increases with the severity of glaucoma damage and decreases with eccentricity.

A Method to Measure the Rate of Glaucomatous Visual Field Change.

GRI provides a robust measure of glaucomatous VF change, operates without discontinuity over the entire perimetric range, and can be used to identify fast progressors.

Vertical Macular Asymmetry Measures Derived From SD-OCT for Detection of Early Glaucoma.

Macular vertical thickness asymmetry measures did not perform better than sectoral or minimum GCIPL thickness for detection of early glaucoma. Combining local asymmetry parameters with the best sectoral GCIPL thickness measures enhanced this task.

Pointwise Methods to Measure Long-term Visual Field Progression in Glaucoma.

These results suggest GRI can detect long-term VF progression in glaucoma earlier than PLR or GPA. Validation with prospective designs may strengthen the generalizability and value of this method.

A Metascore of Multiple Imaging Methods to Measure Long-Term Glaucoma Structural Progression.

We report a method that converts Cirrus global RNFL and HRT global rim area normalized measurements to Spectralis global RNFL equivalent values to facilitate long-term structural follow-up.

The Fast Component of Visual Field Decay Rate Correlates With Disc Rim Area Change Throughout the Entire Range of Glaucomatous Damage.

A decrease in rim area was significantly correlated with the fast VF component regardless of the baseline severity of glaucoma.
