Abstract:
Perimetric tests were performed in 32 ocular hypertensive eyes(17 patients) with the C 30-2 threshold STATPAC program of the Humphrey Visual Field Analyzer. The global indices of 32 ocular hypertensive eyes were compared with those of 34 normal eyes(17 controls). None of 34 normal eyes had visual field sensitivity loss. However, 3 of 32 ocular hypertensive eyes, which was 9.4%, had visual field sensitivity loss beyond the 95% normal confidence limits. Of these 3 eyes, 2 eyes(1 patient) showed paracentral scotomas(CPSD, P<5%), and 1 eye showed generalized depression(MD, P<5%).
