Detection of early visual field change in ocular hypertension using STATPAC

Perimetric tests were performed on 32 ocular hypertensive eyes (17 patients) with the C-30-2 threshold program of the Humphrey Visual Field Analyzer. The global indices of 32 ocular hypertensive eyes were compared with those of 34 normal eyes (17 controls). None of the 34 normal eyes had visual field sensitivity loss. However, three out of 32 ocular hypertensive eyes, which is 0.4%, had visual field sensitivity loss. Of these three eyes, two eyes showed generalized depression (MD, P less than 5%) and one eye showed paracentral scotoma.
