Assessment of visual evoked response in chronic simple glaucoma.

ABSTRACT

1. The largest number of VEP abnormalities were found in check size 16 and alterate 1.88 cycles/sec. 2. With check size 32 and alt/sec. 1.88. (a) Delayed latency (BA) was found in 18.2% eyes without field defect (statistically nearly significant). (b) Delayed latency (BA) was found in 38.5% eyes with field defect (statistically significant (P less than 0.05). 3. When the check size 16 and alt. rate 1.88 cycles/sec. delayed VEP latency (BA) was found in 23.1% eyes with glaucomatous field defect (which is statistically significant (P less than 0.05). 4. When the check size is 32 and alt/sec. 7.5 delayed VEP latency (BT) was found in 30.2% eyes with glaucomatous field defect (showing statistically significant mean difference).
