Comparison of size modulation and conventional standard automated perimetry with the 24-2 test protocol in glaucoma patients.

ABSTRACT: This prospective randomized study compared test results of size modulation standard automated perimetry (SM-SAP) performed with the Octopus 600 and conventional SAP (C-SAP) performed with the Humphrey Field Analyzer (HFA) in glaucoma patients. Eighty-eight eyes of 88 glaucoma patients underwent SM-SAP and C-SAP tests with the Octopus 600 24-2 Dynamic and HFA 24-2 SITA-Standard, respectively. Fovea threshold, mean defect, and square loss variance of SM-SAP were significantly correlated with the corresponding C-SAP indices (P < 0.001). The false-positive rate was slightly lower, and false-negative rate slightly higher, with SM-SAP than C-SAP (P = 0.002). Point-wise threshold values obtained with SM-SAP were moderately to strongly correlated with those obtained with C-SAP (P < 0.001). The correlation coefficients of the central zone were significantly lower than those of the middle to peripheral zone (P = 0.031). The size and depth of the visual field (VF) defect were smaller (P = 0.039) and greater (P = 0.043), respectively, on SM-SAP than on C-SAP. Although small differences were observed in VF sensitivity in the central zone, the defect size and depth and the reliability indices between SM-SAP and C-SAP, global indices of the two testing modalities were well correlated.

Project description:Our objective was to compare the diagnostic accuracies of and to determine the correlations between the disc damage likelihood scale (DDLS) and anatomical and functional tests used for glaucoma detection. A total of 54 healthy subjects (54 eyes) and 47 primary open-angle glaucoma patients (47 eyes) were included in this cross-sectional observational study. DDLS scores and cup-to-disc (C/D) ratios were evaluated. Subjects underwent standard automated perimetry (SAP), optic disc and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) imaging with time and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (TD and SD-OCT), Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT II), and scanning laser polarimetry (GDx-VCC). Areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AROCs) for DDLS and diagnostic tests parameters were calculated. DDLS correlations (Spearman's rank) among these parameters were analyzed. Fifty-four eyes were healthy and 47 had glaucoma, including 16 preperimetric glaucoma. DDLS, vertical and horizontal C/D ratios had the largest AROCs (0.92, 0.94 and 0.91, respectively). DDLS diagnostic accuracy was better than the accuracies of HRT II parameters, TD and SD-OCT RNFL thicknesses, and SAP mean deviation (MD) index. There were no significant differences between the accuracies of the DDLS and the C/D ratios, TD-OCT vertical (0.89) and horizontal (0.86) C/D ratios, TD-OCT C/D area ratio (0.89), and GDx-VCC NFI (0.81). DDLS showed significant strong correlations with vertical (r = 0.79) and horizontal (0.74) C/D ratios, and with the parameters vertical C/D ratio and C/D area ratio from HRT II (both 0.77) and TD-OCT (0.75 and 0.72, respectively). DDLS had significant moderate correlations with most of the other structural measurements and SAP MD. The optic disc clinical evaluation with DDLS system and C/D ratio demonstrated excellent accuracy in distinguishing glaucomatous from healthy eyes. DDLS had moderate to strong correlations with most structural and functional parameters. These findings stress the importance of optic disc clinical examination to detect glaucoma in a clinical scenario.
