To compare the 24-2 and 10-2 visual fields (VFs) and investigate the degree of differences between the 2 tests in glaucomatous eyes with central VF defects. Retrospective study. In all, 99 eyes of 99 glaucoma patients who underwent both the 24-2 VF and 10-2 VF tests within 6 months were enrolled. Glaucomatous eyes with damage involving a central VF defect were divided into 3 groups based on the average total deviation (TD) of 12 central points in the 24-2 VF test. The TD difference was calculated by subtracting the average TD of the 10-2 VF test from the average TD of 12 central points in the 24-2 VF test. The absolute central TD difference in each quadrant was defined as the absolute value of the TD value obtained by subtracting the average TD of 4 central points in the 10-2 VF test from the innermost TD in the 24-2 VF test in each quadrant. The TD differences differed significantly between the severe group and the early and moderate groups ( p < 0.001). In the superonasal quadrant, the absolute central TD difference was significantly greater in the moderate group than in the early group ( p < 0.05). In the superotemporal quadrant, the absolute central TD difference was significantly greater in the severe group than in the other 2 groups ( p < 0.001). Our results indicate that the results of VF tests for different VFs can be inconsistent, depending on the degree of central defects and the VF quadrant.

D012189 Retrospective Studies Studies used to test etiologic hypotheses in which inferences about an exposure to putative causal factors are derived from data relating to characteristics of persons under study or to events or experiences in their past. The essential feature is that some of the persons under study have the disease or outcome of interest and their characteristics are compared with those of unaffected persons.
