Comparison of central visual sensitivity between monocular and binocular testing in advanced glaucoma patients using imo perimetry

Abstract

The central sensitivity of the better eyes was better and that of the worse eyes poorer with binocular testing than with monocular testing in patients with glaucoma. Although monocular VF testing is still the most straightforward means to monocularly monitor glaucoma at clinical settings, binocular testing, such as provided with imo perimetry, may be a useful clinical tool to predict the effect of VF impairments on a patient's quality of visual life.
