[Quantitative perimetry and glaucoma]. 1986

P Demailly, and O Barrault

The authors present the procedure used to quantify the perimetric data for some devices. The purpose is to follow accurately the evolution of perimetric defects in glaucoma: with the Friedmann analyser:global visual capabilities; with the Rodenstock Peritest:defect ratio; with the Autoperimeter 2000 (Dicon):Demailly index.

D005901	Glaucoma	An ocular disease, occurring in many forms, having as its primary characteristics an unstable or a sustained increase in the intraocular pressure which the eye cannot withstand without damage to its structure or impairment of its function. The consequences of the increased pressure may be manifested in a variety of symptoms, depending upon type and severity, such as excavation of the optic disk, hardness of the eyeball, corneal anesthesia, reduced visual acuity, seeing of colored halos around lights, disturbed dark adaptation, visual field defects, and headaches.
