Abstract

Purpose: To investigate the characteristics of visual fields at the time of diagnosis and long-term fluctuations in stable glaucoma patients under treatment. Methods: One-hundred and fifty-nine eyes of 117 patients who were being followed-up in Ankara Numune Training and Research Hospital 1st Eye Clinic with high tension glaucoma (HTG) and normal tension glaucoma (NTG) were evaluated. Initial reliable visual field test results (Humphrey 24-2 full threshold test) and the final visual field tests performed after a mean follow-up of 15.0 ± 4.3 months were compared and evaluated using Advanced Glaucoma Intervention Study (AGIS) scores. Results: Visual fields were stable in 67% of eyes in terms of AGIS scores, while fluctuations occurred in 33% of eyes, resembling an improvement in 22%, and a decay in 11%. Rates of fluctuation were not different between NTG and HTG groups (p=0.744). Initial visual field indices (mean deviation, pattern standard deviation, corrected pattern standard deviation) and AGIS scores indicated to more severe damage in eyes which presented significant fluctuations with AGIS scoring (p=0.001, p=0.008, and p=0.001, respectively, for the indices, and p

Özet

Amaç: Glokomu kontrol altındaki olgularda ilk tanı konulan dönemdeki görme alanı bulgularının özellikleri ve uzun dönem dalgalanmaların araştırılması.Yöntem: Ankara Numune Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi, 1. Göz Kliniğinde yüksek tansiyonlu (YTG) ve normal tansiyonlu glokom (NTG) nedeniyle takip ve tedavi edilmekte olan 117 hastanın, glokomu kontrol altındaki 159 gözüne ait kayıtlar değerlendirmeye alındı. Humphrey 24-2 tam eşik testiyle elde edilmiş ilk güvenilir görme alanları Advanced Glaucoma Intervention Study (AGIS) skorları ile değerlendirilerek ortalama 15.0 ± 4.3 ay sonraki son görme alanı test sonuçları ile karşılaştırıldı. Bulgular: AGIS skorlarındaki değişim göz önüne alındığında genel olarak gözlerin %67'sinde görme alanlarının stabil seyrettiği, %11 olguda bozulma, %22 olguda düzelme yönünde dalgalanmalar olduğu (toplam %33) izlendi. Dalgalanma oranlan açısından NTG ve YTG grupları arasında anlamlı fark izlenmezken (p=0.744), genel olarak AGIS skorlarında anlamlı değişim izlenen gözlerde ilk görme alanı indekslerinin (ortalama sapma, patern standart sapma, düzeltilmiş patern standart sapma) ve ilk skorların anlamlı olarak daha derin hasara işaret ettiği görüldü (indeksler için, p=0.00l, p=0.008, p=0.001, AGİS skoru için p
