Detecting and Quantifying Glaucomatous Visual Function Loss With Continuous Visual Stimulus Tracking: A Case-Control Study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Continuous visual stimulus tracking could be used as an easy alternative to standard automated perimetry (SAP) for visual function screening. With continuous visual stimulus tracking, we simplified the perimetric task to following a moving dot on a screen with the eyes. Here, we determined whether tracking performance (the agreement between gaze and stimulus position) enables the detection and quantification of glaucomatous visual function loss (in terms of SAP), and whether it shows a learning effect.

Methods

We evaluated the tracking performance of 36 cases with early, moderate, or severe glaucoma (median with interquartile range [IQR] age = 70 [67-74] years) and 36 controls (median = 70, IQR = 67-72 years). All participants monocularly tracked a moving stimulus (G
