The Validity of Screening For Open-angle Glaucoma in High-risk Populations With Single-test Screening Mode Frequency Doubling Technology Perimetry (FDT)

Abstract

The sensitivity and specificity of a single reliable screening FDT test were low. Thus, a single screening FDT test in even a high-risk population has poor validity and steps should be taken to better define the target population before testing, and enhance the FDT screening strategy.
