| Summary: |
Aim: To evaluate
the diagnostic usefulness of the use of
frequency-doubling technology (FDT) perimetry in
children and adolescents with glaucoma.
Material and methods: 30 patients with suspected
glaucoma aged 12-18 years and 25 normal control subjects
aged 13-18 years were enclosed in the study. All
participants underwent ophthalmic examination with the
measure of the intraocular pressure and gonioscopy, and
standard achromatic automated perimetry and FDT
perimetry.
Results: 10 (33%) glaucoma patients had visual
field defects in FDT perimetry; visual field in
automated perimetry was normal.
Conclusions: FDT perimetry have the potential
role for the glaucomatous visual field loss detection in
children and adolescents. Visual field defects may be
detected earlier than in standard perimetry. |
