Modifying the Conventional Visual Field Test Pattern to Improve the Detection of Early Glaucomatous Defects in the Central 10°

Purpose: : To simulate modified versions of the 24-2 (6° grid) visual field (VF) test pattern by adding points from the 10-2 (2° grid) test pattern, and to assess their ability to detect early glaucomatous defects in the central 10°. Methods: : One hundred forty-four eyes of 144 glaucoma patients and suspects with 24-2 mean deviations better than −6 dB were tested with 10-2 and 24-2 VFs. Based upon both 10-2 VF and optical coherence tomography...
