Glaucoma is recognized to have its major detrimental effect upon the eye by killing retinal
ganglion cells. The process of cell death appears to be initiated at the optic nerve head …

The glaucomas are a group of relatively common optic neuropathies, in which the
pathological loss of retinal ganglion cells causes a progressive loss of sight and associated …

purpose. To compare the number of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) topographically mapped
with specific visual field threshold test data in the same eyes among glaucoma patients …

It is an honor to review the 5th edition of omitted in the 5th edition. This may be con-Visual
Perception: A Clinical Orientation, sidered a shortcoming by some readers. It by Dr. Steven …

PURPOSE: To conduct a preliminary evaluation of the efficacy of the frequency-doubling
contrast test as a means of screening for glaucomatous visual field loss. METHODS …

Early diagnosis of glaucoma is critical to prevent permanent structural damage and
irreversible vision loss. Detection of glaucoma typically relies on examination of structural …

Purpose: To evaluate the predictive power of frequency doubling technology to distinguish
glaucoma suspects from persons with glaucoma visual field loss. Methods: A consecutive …

PURPOSE: To evaluate the ability of frequency doubling technology perimetry to detect
early, moderate, and advanced glaucomatous visual field loss. METHODS: In a prospective …

PURPOSE: To determine whether frequency doubling technology (FDT) perimetry results
predict glaucomatous visual field defects, as assessed by standard automated perimetry …

purpose. To compare short-wavelength automated perimetry, frequency-doubling
technology perimetry, and motion-automated perimetry, each of which assesses different …
