Scoring Evaluation of Humphrey Visual Field in Glaucoma

Jun Li, Xun-ying You

Abstract

Objective To study the validity and reliability of visual field defect score (VFDS) in glaucoma visual field defect. Methods Thirty eyes of 25 cases with POAG were examined with optic disc by HRT- Ⅱ and visual field by Humphrey Field Analyzer. The relation and correlation were analyzed between the parameters of HRT-Ⅱ , mean defect (MD) and VFDS. Results The significant positive correlation was found between VFDS and MD. These two indexes all correlated with the parameters of HRT-Ⅱ, and the correlation coefficient of VFDS was larger than mat of the MD. Conclusions VFDS corresponds with objective examination of optic disc and could more accurately reflect the visual field damage extent in glaucoma. Key words: Visual field defects score; Glaucoma; Mean defect
