title: [A dissociation of thresholds between Goldmann kinetic perimetry and high-pass resolution perimetry in retinitis pigmentosa].
abstract: The authors studied the differences between the automated static perimetry of high-pass resolution perimeter (HRP) and the kinetic perimetry of the Goldmann perimeter in 12 patients with retinitis pigmentosa. In a total of 10 eyes of 6 patients, we found 19 quadrants in which the patients were not able to recognize the largest ring target even when the target was within the isopter of the Goldmann perimetry. Also, there were 10 quadrants in which the largest target was not recognized in a total of 6 eyes of 4 patients even though their visual field showed symmetrical isopter in upper and lower or right and left quadrants in the Goldmann perimetry. As a result, it was suggested that the causes of the dissocation were a greater decrease in sensitivity for the low spatial frequency target than the high spatial frequency target and/or a greater decrease in resolution sensitivity than light sensitivity in retinitis pigmentosa.
