No difference was noted for the MS values of the patients under the age of 40 years in central 27° and 5° eccentries (p>0.05), whereas it was found to be significantly decreased in central 27° and in central 5° starting from 40 and 50 years, respectively (p<0.05).

Abstract

Purpose: To determine the visual field properties of the normal subjects living in Turkey. Material and Methods: Both eyes of 479 healthy subjects were included in the study. Achromatic perimetric analysis were performed using SITA Standard central 30-2 program. Subjects were divided into seven age groups.Mean sensitivity (MS), mean deviation (MD), pattern standard deviation (PSD) and the test durations were obtained for each group. Results: The mean age of the subjects were 41.3±19.8 years. The mean MS of those older than 50 years were found to be significantly lower than that the other groups (p<0.05). No difference was noted for the MS values of the patients under the age of 40 years in central 27° and 5° eccentries (p>0.05), whereas it was found to be significantly decreased in central 27° and in central 5° starting from 40 and 50 years, respectively (p<0.05). Conclusion: The decrease in the visual field MS with increase in the age has been noted to be significant especially after the age of 50 years. The reduction in the mean MS values has initially occurred in the peripheral visual fields firstly.

Özet

Amaç: Türkiye'de yaşayan normal olgularda görme alanı özelliklerinin belirlenmesi. Gereç ve Yöntem: Sağlıklı 479 olgunun her iki gözü çalışma kapsamına alındı. SITA Standart, merkez 30-2 programı kullanılarak tüm gözlerin akromatik otomatik görme alanı analizleri gerçekleştirildi. Olgular yedi farklı yaş grubuna ayrıldı. Her yaş grubu için ortalama eşik duyarlılık (MS), ortalama sapma (MD), patern standart sapma (PSD) ve test süreleri elde edildi. Bulgular: Olguların ortalama yaşı 41.3±19.8 yıldı. Elli yaş üstü grupların görme alanı ortalama MS değerleri diğer gruplara göre anlamlı olarak düşük bulundu (p 0.05), MS değerlerinin, merkez 27°'de 40 yaş ve merkez 5°'de ise 50 yaşından itibaren anlamlı olarak azaldığı saptandı (p<0.05). Sonuç: Yaşın ilerlemesiyle normal toplumda görme alanı ortalama eşik değerlerindeki düşüş özellikle 50 yaş üzerinde belirgin olmaktadır. Ortalama MS değerlerindeki düşüş öncelikle çevre görme alanında ortaya çıkmaktadır.
