Visual Crowding in Glaucoma.

In glaucoma patients, a pronounced visual crowding effect is observed, even in the presence of mild visual field loss on standard perimetry.

Wayfinding and Glaucoma: A Virtual Reality Experiment.

Glaucoma patients performed significantly worse on allocentric-based wayfinding tasks conducted in a VR environment, suggesting visual field loss may affect the construction of spatial cognitive maps relevant to successful wayfinding.

Glaucoma and Driving Risk under Simulated Fog Conditions.

Glaucoma patients have a steeper increase in driving risk under fog conditions when compared to healthy subjects, especially when the severity of visual field damage falls below -9 dB of MD in the better eye.

Longitudinal Simulated Driving Performance and Rates of Progressive Visual Field Loss in Glaucoma.

Faster VF progression in patients with glaucoma was associated with worsening performance on a divided attention task during driving simulation.

Hazard Detection During Simulated Driving in Glaucoma Patients.

RTs in response to hazardous driving situations were slower for glaucoma patients compared with controls.

Evaluation of Postural Control in Patients with Glaucoma Using a Virtual Reality Environment.

The study presented and validated a novel paradigm for evaluation of balance control in patients with glaucoma on the basis of the assessment of postural reactivity to dynamic visual stimuli using a virtual reality environment.

Relationship Between Motor Vehicle Collisions and Results of Perimetry, Useful Field of View, and Driving Simulation in Drivers With Glaucoma.

Reaction times to low contrast divided attention tasks during driving simulation were significantly associated with history of MVC, performing better than conventional perimetric tests and UFOV.

Association between progressive retinal nerve fiber layer loss and longitudinal change in quality of life in glaucoma.

Progressive binocular RNFL thickness loss was associated with longitudinal loss in quality of life, even after adjustment for progressive visual field loss.

Longitudinal changes in quality of life and rates of progressive visual field loss in glaucoma patients.

Baseline severity, magnitude, and rates of change in BVF sensitivity were associated with longitudinal changes in QoL of glaucoma patients.
