The effect of treatment on the results of high‐pass resolution perimetry in glaucoma

摘要: In order to find out which extent high-pass resolution perimetry would detect any changes in patients treated for glaucoma, resultswere evaluated from 56 glaucoma and 15 untreated ocular hypertensive followed 2 3 years. Fifty-nine of the 71 examined showed lower thresholds, i.e. increased sensitivity after years, compared initial values. The threshold decrease was significantly larger inthe (median 1.22 dB) than (0.48 dB). group corresponds previously described learning effect. 35 thresholds improved more 0.84 dB, upper confidence limit group, may indicate a beneficial effect antiglaucoma therapy these patients.The change unrelated cannot be explained by 'sorting' observations current study using that visual function can demonstrated many early at least during thefirst years treatment.
