Association of 10-2 Visual Field Cluster Patterns With Visual Acuity in Normal-Tension Glaucoma Patients With Central Visual Field Defects.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To investigate clustering patterns of 10-2 visual field (VF) defects in normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) patients with central VF involvement and identify specific clusters associated with visual acuity (VA) loss across disease stages.

Methods

NTG patients who underwent 24-2 and 10-2 VF testing, optical coherence tomography (OCT), and OCT angiography were included. Based on 24-2 VF mean deviation (MD), eyes were classified as early-stage (MD ≥ -6 dB) or moderate-to-advanced (MD < -6 dB). Hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) was applied to 10-2 VF total deviation (TD) values to identify spatial patterns of central VF defects (CVFDs). Pearson correlation and regression analyses assessed relationships between cluster mean TD (mTD) and VA, and determined predictors of VA los
