Establishing Fully-Automated Fundus-Controlled Dark Adaptometry: A Validation and Retest-Reliability Study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

The purpose of this study was to establish and validate a novel fundus-controlled dark-adaptometry method.

Methods

We developed a custom dark-adaptometry software for the S-MAIA device using the open-perimetry-interface. In the validation-substudy, participants underwent dark-adaptometry testing with a comparator device (MonCvONE, 59% rhodopsin bleach, cyan and red stimuli centered at 2 degrees, 4 degrees, and 6 degrees eccentricity). Following a brief break (approximately 5 minutes), the participants were bleached again and underwent dark-adaptometry testing with the S-MAIA device (same loci). In the retest reliability-substudy, participants were tested twice with the S-MAIA device (same loci as above). Nonlinear curve fitting was applied to extract dark-adaptation
