A modified visual field (VF) trend analysis using fewer tests improved specificity in glaucoma patients. This method reduces false positives by minimizing the impact of outlying values on progression detection.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Optometry
  • Medical Statistics

Background:

  • Visual field (VF) trend analysis is crucial for monitoring glaucoma progression.
  • Outlying data points can significantly skew the estimated rate of change in VF tests.
  • Accurate trend analysis is essential for timely and effective glaucoma management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate a modified visual field trend analysis method designed to reduce the influence of outlying values.
  • To compare the specificity and accuracy of the modified approach against conventional pointwise linear regression (PLR).

Main Methods:

  • Automated pointwise linear regression (PLR) was applied to visual field (VF) test data from glaucoma patients.
  • A control group used conventional PLR with all available VF tests.

  • Study groups employed a truncated PLR analysis using only the initial and final sets of VF tests (3, 4, or 5 tests).

    • Main Results:

    • The modified VF trend analysis (truncated PLR) demonstrated comparable global rates of VF change and progression endpoints to conventional PLR.
    • A key finding was a reduction in the number of eyes showing false-positive improvement in the modified analysis groups.
    • No significant differences in the overall rate of decline or progression were observed between the conventional and modified methods.

    Conclusions:

    • The modified visual field trend analysis offers greater specificity compared to conventional PLR in glaucoma patients.
    • This approach effectively minimizes the impact of outlying values, leading to more reliable trend estimations.
    • The modified method shows promise for improving the accuracy of glaucoma progression monitoring.
