Comparison of Microperimetry and Static Perimetry for Evaluating Macular Function and Progression in Retinitis Pigmentosa.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To compare the usefulness of microperimetry and static automated perimetry in patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP), using macular anatomical metrics as a reference.

Design

Prospective observational study.

Participants

Forty-eight eyes of 48 patients with RP in Kyushu University Hospital who underwent microperimetry-3 (MP-3) and Humphrey Field Analyzer (HFA) 10-2 testing ≥3 times during ≥2 years were included.

Methods

Macular anatomy (ellipsoid zone [EZ] length) was assessed by OCT, and macular function was assessed by MP-3 (mean retinal sensitivity at radii 2°, 4°, and 8°) and HFA10-2 program (mean retinal sensitivity at radii 2°, 4°, and 8°). Correlations between functional and anatomical parameters were analyzed cross sectionally at baseline and lo
