Virtual Reality Portable Perimetry and Home Monitoring of Glaucoma: Retention and Compliance over a 2-year Period.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To evaluate long-term retention, compliance, and performance of glaucoma patients using a virtual reality portable perimeter to monitor visual fields (VFs) at home.

Design

Prospective, longitudinal, cohort study.

Subjects

Twenty-five glaucoma patients with stable and reliable VFs (average age 67.4 years) were recruited at Toronto Western Hospital, Ontario, Canada.

Methods

Participants were instructed to perform bilateral home VF tests fortnightly for 2 years using the Toronto Portable Perimeter (TPP). Based on empirical home monitoring data, simulation analyses were conducted to evaluate the progression detection performance of high-frequency TPP testing.

Main outcome measures

Retention rates were calculated as the percentage of participants who
