Simultaneous visual field (VF) testing with two patients in the same room is as reliable and performant as isolated testing. This approach can enhance efficiency in busy eye clinics.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Visual field testing
  • Clinical efficiency

Background:

  • Traditional visual field (VF) testing involves isolated sessions for each patient.
  • Optimizing clinic workflow and resource utilization is crucial in high-volume eye centers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the reliability and performance of simultaneous, two-patient visual field testing versus traditional, single-patient testing.
  • To evaluate the impact of technician-to-patient ratio on simultaneous testing outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • A comparative case series design was employed.
  • 471 eyes from 261 subjects undergoing Humphrey visual field (VF) testing were analyzed.
  • Patient performance and reliability in simultaneous ('double field') and isolated ('single field') VF tests were compared using paired t tests.

Main Results:

  • No significant differences in reliability or performance parameters were observed between single and double field tests.
  • Double field tests showed a slightly longer duration (6.1 vs. 5.9 minutes, P < 0.001).
  • Stratification by technician-to-patient ratio (1:2 vs. 2:2) revealed no significant differences in reliability or performance.

Conclusions:

  • Simultaneous visual field testing with two patients in the same room does not compromise test performance or reliability.
  • This method offers a potential strategy for busy clinical practices to reduce costs and improve operational efficiency.
  • Supervising multiple test-takers concurrently by a single technician is feasible without impacting diagnostic quality.
