Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare standard automated perimetry (SAP) using the Heidelberg Edge Perimeter (HEP) to the Octopus Visual Field (OVF) analyzer and determine test-retest reliability of both parameters in detecting glaucomatous visual field losses. This study will also investigate novel imaging parameters of the optic nerve head and new automated structure-function reports.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Age > 18 years.
  • Best corrected visual acuity of 20/40 or better in the tested eye.
  • Spherical refraction within ±5.0 D, and cylinder correction within ±3.0 D.
  • History of glaucoma, defined as:
  • Characteristic of glaucomatous disc damage: (local narrowing, notching, or absence of the neuroretinal rim in the absence of disc pallor elsewhere).

Exclusion Criteria

  • Any condition preventing adequate examination of the pupil or visual field testing (e.g. ptosis, dense corneal opacities or lens opacities);
  • Active infection of the anterior or posterior segments of the eye;
  • Any intraocular surgical or laser procedure within the previous 4 weeks;
  • Participants taking a medication known to affect visual field sensitivity, a coexisting intraocular disease affecting visual field, or a problem other than glaucoma affecting color vision will be excluded.
