High-Resolution Microperimetry for Detecting Glaucomatous Damage: A Prospective Evaluation of Performance.

ABSTRACT:

Background

To compare the performance of high-resolution microperimetry testing against standard automated perimetry (SAP) for detecting glaucomatous damage seen on optical coherence tomography (OCT) scans.

Methods

250 eyes from 200 individuals underwent high-resolution microperimetry testing of a hemifield using a stimulus pattern optimised to sample typical arcuate patterns of visual field loss in glaucoma. SAP was performed using a 24-2 stimulus pattern. The presence of glaucomatous damage in each hemifield was subsequently independently assessed by two graders based on a circumpapillary OCT circle scan, 6×6 mm optic disc-centred OCT volume scan, and 15×15 mm widefield OCT volume scan.

Results

The hemifield-based mean total deviation (MTD) and pointwise sensitivity
