The SCHEIE grading system offers a reproducible method for classifying glaucoma visual field defects. This system combines qualitative and quantitative scores, improving defect identification and standardization in research.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Medical Imaging

Background:

  • Glaucoma visual field (VF) defect grading lacks a universally accepted standard.
  • Existing methods may not consistently convey both qualitative and quantitative VF defect information.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce the SCHEIE (Systematic Classification of Humphrey visual fields-Easy Interpretation and Evaluation) grading system.
  • To provide an objective, reproducible, and easily applicable method for grading glaucomatous visual field defects for research.

Main Methods:

  • The SCHEIE system integrates a qualitative score (e.g., normal, scotoma types, arcuate defects) and a quantitative score.
  • The quantitative component includes the Humphrey visual field index (VFI), hemifield defect locations, and blind spot involvement.
  • Non-physician graders assessed accuracy and speed using both components.

Main Results:

  • Median accuracy for qualitative scores was 96.67%, and for quantitative scores was 98.75%.
  • Graders spent a mean of 56 seconds for qualitative scoring and 20 seconds for quantitative scoring per visual field.

Conclusions:

  • The SCHEIE system is a reproducible tool for grading glaucomatous VF defects using combined measurements.
  • It aims to standardize clinical staging and enhance the identification of specific VF defect patterns.
  • Future research may link specific VF loss patterns to genetic variants.
