Glaucoma
•Characteristic optic neuropathy
•Multiple risk factors
•Progressive injury to retinal
ganglion cells and their axons
•Specific pattern of optic atrophy
(“cupping”)
•Associated visual function
defects

Glaucoma Assessment
Assessment and documentation of the
optic nerve and visual field are an
essential component to the diagnosis,
staging and longitudinal assessment of
glaucoma
![Page 5: Glaucoma Diagnosis: 1970s Increased IOP = Glaucoma · Glaucoma Hemifield Test (GHT) •Printout –GHT Outside Normal Limits - Upper and lower fields differ in](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022718/5c5d64c609d3f2a1498cd323/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Impact of Glaucomatous VF Loss
• Glaucoma patients may be at increased risk of
car accidents
– Patients with moderate or severe visual field loss in
the worse eye had approximately a 4 times greater
risk of being in a car accident than patients with no
VF defect1,2
– Patients with glaucoma may avoid difficult driving
situations
• Glaucoma patients are at increased risk of
falls3

Five Rules (The 5 Rs) for Assessment of the Optic Disc
1. Observe the scleral
Ring to identify the
limits of the optic
disc and its size

SITA SAP
• SITA: Swedish Interactive Threshold Algorithm
• SAP: Standard Automated Perimetry
• SITA SAP is the standard method for assessing
the visual field in glaucoma patients
• Algorithm analyzes the patient's responses and
uses age-normalized statistical data to shorten
the testing time

SITA SAP
• White stimulus on white background (achromatic)
• Detects visual field loss only after considerable
damage to the optic nerve
– May underestimate damage in early disease

SITA SAP
NOT to be confused with SITA Fast
– SITA Fast is less sensitive1 and should
NOT be used to diagnose and follow
glaucoma patients

![Page 27: Glaucoma Diagnosis: 1970s Increased IOP = Glaucoma · Glaucoma Hemifield Test (GHT) •Printout –GHT Outside Normal Limits - Upper and lower fields differ in](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022718/5c5d64c609d3f2a1498cd323/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Right Test
• Right strategy?

glaucoma and decreased
visual acuity
Appendix B
![Page 28: Glaucoma Diagnosis: 1970s Increased IOP = Glaucoma · Glaucoma Hemifield Test (GHT) •Printout –GHT Outside Normal Limits - Upper and lower fields differ in](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022718/5c5d64c609d3f2a1498cd323/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Right Test
• Right field size?
– 24-2 is the standard size
– 10-2 can be used with
visual field loss within the
central 10º of fixation
![Page 29: Glaucoma Diagnosis: 1970s Increased IOP = Glaucoma · Glaucoma Hemifield Test (GHT) •Printout –GHT Outside Normal Limits - Upper and lower fields differ in](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022718/5c5d64c609d3f2a1498cd323/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Right Test
•Right age (date of birth)?
– Correct normative
database
– Goldmann Table adapted
from HFA instruction
booklet
•Correct refractive error?
•Correct pupil size?
(≥ 3 mm)

Rule #2:Check Reliability of the Field
![Page 31: Glaucoma Diagnosis: 1970s Increased IOP = Glaucoma · Glaucoma Hemifield Test (GHT) •Printout –GHT Outside Normal Limits - Upper and lower fields differ in](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022718/5c5d64c609d3f2a1498cd323/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Reliability
•Reliability indices
– False positives,
false negatives
•Fixation losses

ReliabilityFalse Positive Rate (FP)
• Percentage of time the patient
responded in the absence
of a stimulus
• >25% – use caution
• >33% FP rate – unreliable
• Ideal rate is <10%
Elevated FPs artifactually improve the
appearance of the field
![Page 33: Glaucoma Diagnosis: 1970s Increased IOP = Glaucoma · Glaucoma Hemifield Test (GHT) •Printout –GHT Outside Normal Limits - Upper and lower fields differ in](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022718/5c5d64c609d3f2a1498cd323/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
ReliabilityFalse Negative Rate (FN)
• Percentage of time the patient failed to respond to a stimulus that should have been seen, based on past responses
• >25% FN rate – use caution
• >33% FN rate – unreliable
A high false negative rate may reflect fatigue or advanced visual field damage
![Page 34: Glaucoma Diagnosis: 1970s Increased IOP = Glaucoma · Glaucoma Hemifield Test (GHT) •Printout –GHT Outside Normal Limits - Upper and lower fields differ in](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022718/5c5d64c609d3f2a1498cd323/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
ReliabilityFixation Losses (FL)
• Percentage of times the patient responded to a stimulus presented at the plotted blind spot
• FL increases if:
– The patient does not maintain fixation
– The blind spot was incorrectly located
– The patient’s head moves
• FL rate >20% – use caution
• FL rate < 33% – acceptable if the technician feels the patient maintained good fixation

Rule #3:Review the Probability Plots
![Page 37: Glaucoma Diagnosis: 1970s Increased IOP = Glaucoma · Glaucoma Hemifield Test (GHT) •Printout –GHT Outside Normal Limits - Upper and lower fields differ in](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022022718/5c5d64c609d3f2a1498cd323/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Review Probability Plots
Global Index: Mean Deviation (MD)
• Average loss of entire field in decibels – depression from age-normal hill of vision
– A 4-dB depression at all points in the field or a depression of 8 dB over half of the field would both give an MD of -4 dB
• More negative MD = worse field
• A P-value is given for the probability the MD would occur in a normal individual
“Hill of Vision”

Review Probability PlotsGlobal Index: Pattern Standard Deviation (PSD)
•PSD is a measure of focal visual loss
•A higher PSD suggests greater localized field damage
• In OHTS, PSD was identified as 1 of 5 important contributors to the risk of developing glaucoma
• In advanced glaucoma, PSD can actually decrease because damage is no longer focal

Conventional Perimetry Is Nonselective• Conventional perimetry activates a variety of RGC processing
pathways
• Any of these pathways can lead to perception of the stimulus
• This redundancy may be responsible for reduced sensitivity

•8% - 30% abnormal in OHT
•Larger defects in GON

Practical Issues: Reimbursement
•Medicare documentation must include an order
for the test and an interpretation of the results
– Description of reliability, changes since last test,
clinician’s assessment
– Report must be signed and visual field printout dated
and initialed by the clinician
•Extended examination (eg, HVF 30-2 or 24-2)
and repeated test, if needed, billed as ICD
