    Summary

    Disordered color vision topography is a new early symptom of glaucoma, detectable in the parafoveal region. This finding aids in the initial diagnosis and tracking of glaucomatous optic neuropathy progression.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Neuroscience

    Context:

    • Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness.
    • Early diagnosis of glaucoma is crucial for preserving vision.
    • Current diagnostic methods may not detect the earliest functional changes.

    Purpose:

    • To identify new functional symptoms of glaucoma.
    • To investigate the utility of color vision topography in early glaucoma detection.
    • To compare the extent of functional deficits detected by color vision topography versus static perimetry.

    Summary:

    • Presents new data on retinal cone system function in glaucoma.
    • Introduces disordered topography of red and green color sensitivity as a novel early symptom of glaucomatous optic neuropathy.
    • Demonstrates that color vision topography identifies functional deficits in the parafoveal area, which are more extensive than those found by static perimetry, and tracks disease progression.
