Classification of Visual Field Abnormalities in Highly Myopic Eyes without Pathologic Change.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To develop a classification system of visual field (VF) abnormalities in highly myopic eyes with and without glaucoma.

Design

Secondary analysis of VF data from a longitudinal cohort study.

Participants

One thousand eight hundred ninety-three VF tests from 1302 eyes (825 individuals).

Methods

All participants underwent VF testing (Humphrey 24-2 Swedish interactive threshold algorithm standard program; Carl Zeiss Meditec) and detailed ophthalmic examination. A comprehensive set of VF defect patterns was defined via observation of the 1893 VF reports, literature review, and consensus meetings. The classification system comprised 4 major types of VF patterns, including normal type, glaucoma-like defects (paracentral defect, nasal step, partial arcuate defe
