Tendency-oriented perimetry (TOP) has unusual spatial characteristics. This visual field testing strategy struggles to accurately estimate defect extent and sensitivity, particularly for smaller visual field defects.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Vision Science

Background:

  • Tendency-oriented perimetry (TOP) is a novel visual field testing strategy.
  • TOP aims for rapid visual field sensitivity estimation using linear interpolation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the spatial resolution characteristics of the TOP algorithm.
  • To evaluate TOP's accuracy in estimating visual field defects.

Main Methods:

  • Monte Carlo simulations were employed to model visual fields with realistic variability.
  • Simulated visual field defects of varying sizes and depths were introduced.
  • The TOP algorithm estimated visual field sensitivity, and global indices (MD, LV) were calculated.

Main Results:

  • TOP tended to overestimate sensitivity for small defects (1-2 points).

  • Mean Deviation (MD) was predicted adequately, but Loss Variance (LV) was underestimated.
  • TOP accurately predicted larger defects (9 points) but reduced sensitivity estimates in surrounding normal areas.
  • Conclusions:

    • The TOP procedure exhibits spatial characteristics that limit its accuracy.
    • TOP is not suitable for precise estimation of visual field defect extent and sensitivity.
