Deriving visual field loss based upon OCT of inner retinal thicknesses of the macula

Using a multiple linear regression method, a derived visual field (VF) was obtained from retinal ganglion cell and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thicknesses measured with frequency-domain, optical coherence tomography (OCT) macular scans. 138 eyes from 92 glaucoma patients or suspects and 58 heal...

Vision, Color, and Visual Optics Using a multiple linear regression method, a derived visual field (VF) was obtained from retinal ganglion cell and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thicknesses measured with frequency-domain, optical coherence tomography (OCT) macular scans. 138 eyes from 92 glaucoma patients or suspects and 58 healthy eyes were included. The derived VF was compared to the VF measured with standard automated perimetry (SAP). The median agreement between the derived and observed VFs was 90%. As the derived and observed VFs should be independent, they can be combined to potentially increase the sensitivity/specificity of a test for glaucoma.
