Comparison of retinal nerve fiber layer thickness values using Stratus Optical Coherence Tomography and Heidelberg Retina Tomograph-III.

30 Aug 2009 PURPOSE: To evaluate the usefulness of retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness measurements using the Heidelberg Retina Tomograph-III (HRT-III) in normal, ocular hypertensive, and glaucomatous eyes and compare the thickness measurements using ... Read more...

Multifocal pupillographic visual field testing in glaucoma.

30 Aug 2009 PURPOSE: This preliminary study investigated a means of concurrently assessing the visual field defects of both eyes by recording pupillary responses to multifocal stimuli. METHODS: Twenty normal subjects and 26 primary open angle glaucoma patients, ... Read more...

[Frequency-doubling technology : A new method for determining glaucomatous visual field defects]

30 Jul 2009 Glaucoma is a disease in which death of retinal ganglion cells is associated with loss of visual function. The gold standard for visual field testing has been standard automated perimetry (SAP). However, up to 30-50% of retinal ganglion cells must ... Read more...
