Applying "Lasso" Regression to Predict Future Glaucomatous Visual Field Progression in the Central 10 Degrees.

Mean deviation prediction using OLSLR with a small number of VFs resulted in large prediction errors. It was useful to apply Lasso regression when predicting future progression of the central 10 degrees, compared to OLSLR.

Shortening of Interpupillary Distance after Instillation of Topical Prostaglandin Analog Eye Drops.

The IPD decreased significantly after topical PGAs within 24 months. The effect was significantly greater with bimatoprost than with other PGAs. The noninvasive, immediate automatic refractometry measurement may be an objective numerical indicator of PAP.

Developing an Item Bank to Measure Quality of Life in Individuals With Glaucoma, and the Results of the Interview With Patients: The Effect of Visual Function, Visual Field Progression Rate, Medical, and Surgical Treatments on Quality of Life.

A new item bank to measure QOL in glaucoma patients was developed and evaluated. Age and mTDinf were found to be related to direct disability while medical and surgical treatments were related to indirect disability.

Estimating the Binocular Visual Field of Glaucoma Patients With an Adjustment for Ocular Dominance.

The most accurate estimation of binocular sensitivity was achieved using the linear monocular sensitivity summation model adjusted for ocular dominance.

Do pattern deviation values accurately estimate glaucomatous visual field damage in eyes with glaucoma and cataract?

Clinicians should be very careful when reviewing the VF of a patient with glaucoma and cataract since PD values may underestimate glaucomatous VF damage in patients with advanced disease and also overestimate glaucomatous VF damage…

Diagnosis of Early-Stage Glaucoma by Grid-Wise Macular Inner Retinal Layer Thickness Measurement and Effect of Compensation of Disc-Fovea Inclination.

Grid-wise analysis of macular GCC--especially using 8 × 8 grids and normative data-based cutoff values--was very useful for diagnosing early-stage glaucoma, though compensation of the disc-fovea inclination had little effect.

How Many Visual Fields Are Required to Precisely Predict Future Test Results in Glaucoma Patients When Using Different Trend Analyses?

Approximately 10 VFs, are needed to achieve an accurate prediction of PW VF sensitivity and mean sensitivity.

Applying "Lasso" Regression to Predict Future Visual Field Progression in Glaucoma Patients.

Prediction errors using OLSLR are large when only a small number of VFs are included in the regression. Lasso regression offers much more accurate predictions, especially in short VF series.
