Diagnostic Accuracy of Frequency-Doubling Technology and the Moorfields Motion Displacement Test for Glaucoma.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Portable perimetric testing could be useful for community-based glaucoma screening programs. Frequency-doubling technology (FDT) and the Moorfields motion displacement test (MDT) are portable perimeters that have shown promise as potential screening tools for glaucoma. This study's goal was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of FDT and MDT for visual field defects and glaucoma.

Design

Prospective, cross-sectional, diagnostic accuracy study.

Participants

A consecutive series of patients aged ≥ 50 years who presented to a glaucoma clinic in South India and had never undergone Humphrey field analyzer (HFA) visual field testing in the past.

Methods

Participants underwent 24-2 Swedish Interactive Thresholding Algorithm (SITA) Standard HFA perimetry, FDT pe
