Visual field defects in dementia: A scoping review.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

This review aimed to systematically assess the literature reporting the relationship between dementia and standard automated perimetry results, including sensitivity, global indices, patterns of visual field defect and reliability indices.

Design

A scoping review and meta-analysis were conducted.

Setting and participants

Published studies in any setting which reported on standard automated perimetry results (any of: global indices, pointwise sensitivities, reliability indices and/or patterns of visual field defects) in participants with ('cases') or without ('controls') dementia due to neurodegenerative disease.

Methods

Four databases were searched (to July 2024) and included published studies comparing the perimetry results of cases and controls.
