Choosing two points to add to the 24-2 pattern to better describe macular visual field damage due to glaucoma

摘要

Background/aims A recent study has shown that the paracentral upper visual field in the macular region is often affected in glaucoma and suggested that two test locations within the central 10 degrees should be added to the Humphrey 24-2 visual field test pattern to detect such damage. This study employed data collected using a different visual field test pattern to determine whether the same two-test locations are supported as the most informative regarding visual field loss.
