    Visual Evoked Potentials (VEP) changes indicate Open Angle Glaucoma progression. Alterations in VEP waves correlate with disease severity, offering prognostic value.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Neuroscience
    • Visual electrophysiology

    Context:

    • Open Angle Glaucoma (OAG) is a leading cause of irreversible blindness.
    • Assessing visual pathway integrity is crucial for OAG diagnosis and management.
    • Visual Evoked Potentials (VEP) offer a non-invasive method to evaluate optic nerve and visual pathway function.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze the variations in Visual Evoked Potentials (VEP) in patients with Open Angle Glaucoma (OAG).
    • To correlate VEP changes with different stages of OAG.
    • To investigate the dynamic changes in VEP before and after intraocular pressure-lowering treatment.

    Summary:

    • VEP recordings using pattern reversal revealed progressive alterations in OAG patients.
    • In early OAG stages, minimal VEP changes were observed, including inconsistent N75/N135 waves and slight P100 latency variations.

  • Advanced OAG stages showed significant P100 wave delays, while the VEP signal was absent in absolute stages.
  • Impact:

    • VEP alterations are significantly influenced by the stage of Open Angle Glaucoma.
    • Gradual changes in the VEP waveform serve as a prognostic indicator for OAG.
    • This study highlights VEP's utility in monitoring OAG progression and predicting disease outcomes.
