The Visual Field in Normal Tension and Hyper Tension Glaukoma

Original language description

The aim of the study was to determine whether normal tension glaucoma (NTG) is different from hypertension glaucoma (HTG) in global indices ?with regard to the pattern defect (PD) and overall defect (OD) of the visual field.25 NTG patients withan averageage of 62.8 years and 25 HTG patients with an average age of 62.5 years were included in the study. All patientsunderwent a visual fieldexamination using the Medmont M700 fast threshold glaucoma program. Both groups had approximately the same impairmentof the visual field. No patient had other ophthalmological or neurological diseases. Subsequently, we compared PD and OD in both groups. Statistical analysis was performed using the paired t-test, which showed that PD is statistically higher than OD (p= 0.0001) in patients with NTG. On the contrary, patients with HTG showed statistically higher OD values when compared to PD (p = 0.000).Conclusion: We found that both groups of diseases show significantly different visual field findings.
