[Progression of early glaucomatous visual field defects].
We studied the mode of progression of visual field defects in glaucoma the using static computerized perimetry (OCTOPUS 201). As a result of analysis using Delta Program, the modes of progression of the visual field defects were divided into two groups, general depression and local depression. The cases of general depression were younger than those of local depression. In cases of local depression, we examined the direction of progression in isolated scotomas. Isolated scotomas located at the nasal visual field tended to progress toward the nasal and peripheral side.
