    Glaucoma patients with typical nerve fibre bundle defects may have isolated temporal visual field defects. This study highlights the importance of assessing the temporal visual field in glaucoma diagnosis and management.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Optometry
    • Vision Science

    Background:

    • Glaucoma is a progressive optic neuropathy characterized by characteristic visual field defects.
    • Typical glaucomatous defects often involve arcuate or nerve fibre bundle patterns.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the occurrence of isolated temporal visual field defects in glaucoma patients with typical nerve fibre bundle defects.
    • To emphasize the clinical significance of evaluating the temporal visual field in glaucoma assessment.

    Main Methods:

    • A study was conducted on 151 glaucomatous eyes.
    • Eyes were selected based on the presence of typical nerve fibre bundle defects.

    Main Results:

    • Four out of 151 (3%) glaucomatous eyes exhibited isolated temporal visual field defects.

  • This finding was observed despite the presence of typical nerve fibre bundle defects.

    • Conclusions:

    • Isolated temporal visual field defects can occur in glaucoma patients with typical nerve fibre bundle damage.
    • Routine examination of the temporal visual field is crucial for comprehensive glaucoma evaluation.
