Can Home Monitoring Allow Earlier Detection of Rapid Visual Field Progression in Glaucoma?

Detecting rapid visual field progression may be improved using a home-monitoring strategy, even when compliance is imperfect. The cost-benefit of such an approach is yet to be demonstrated, however.

Comparison of Rates of Fast and Catastrophic Visual Field Loss in Three Glaucoma Subtypes.

Differences in fast and catastrophic visual field progression can exist despite only small changes in median progression rates, highlighting the importance of considering the full shape of the progression rate distribution when comparing the risk…

Significant Glaucomatous Visual Field Progression in the First Two Years: What Does It Mean?

Although performing multiple visual fields in the first 2 years provides appropriate power to detect rapid progression, a significant regression slope in the first 2 years is not highly predictive of rapid progression, particularly so…

Exercise and Glaucoma: Positive Steps Toward Finding Another Modifiable Risk Factor to Prevent Vision Loss.

Using the Rate of Glaucomatous Visual Field Progression in One Eye to Help Assess the Rate in the Fellow Eye.

The long-term rate of visual field change in an eye is, in part, predicted by the rate in the fellow eye, particularly when only a few visual field results are available for each eye.

Do Intense Perimetric Stimuli Saturate the Healthy Visual System?

Observers can reliably discriminate between two different, but both very intense, perimetric stimuli, indicating that responses of the human visual system are not saturated by such stimuli.

Comparison of Three Parametric Models for Glaucomatous Visual Field Progression Rate Distributions.

Although the optimum model differed depending upon the particular dataset, a modified hyperbolic secant performed well for all distributions investigated and was strongly favored when evidence was summed across datasets.

Estimating the true distribution of visual field progression rates in glaucoma.

The underlying distribution of glaucomatous visual field progression rates for the population is likely to be narrower, and less symmetric, than that predicted from empirical data.
