Characteristics of Central Visual Field Progression in Eyes with Optic Disc Hemorrhage.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To investigate the characteristics and rate of central visual field loss after optic disc hemorrhage (DH).

Design

Prospective cohort study.

Methods

Three hundred forty-three eyes of 220 subjects who had ≥3 years of follow-up with a minimum of 5 visits with 10-2 and 24-2 visual field (VF) were recruited. Rates of 10-2 mean deviation (MD) loss in each hemifield and predefined zones were compared using linear mixed-effects models in DH and non-DH eyes. Clustered pointwise regression analysis was also used to define central VF progressors and compared with 24-2 VF loss using guided progression analysis.

Results

Thirty-nine eyes with DH and 304 eyes without DH had a mean follow-up of 5.2 years. Eyes with DH had rates of 10-2 MD loss that were 3 times faster
