ABSTRACT
To evaluate its clinical efficacy, we report the results of Armaly central field screening test in comparison with those of central 30-2 threshold test of Humphrey Field Analyzer. In 83 cases of normotensives, ocular hypertensives, and glaucoma patients with open-angle or narrow-angle enrolled in this study, a total of 143 eyes were examined. Fifty-four out of 61 patients (88.5%) and 73 out of 81 eyes (90.1%) with visual field defects were detected by the Humphrey Field Analyzer screening test. Eight eyes out of 81(9.9%) with visual field defects detected by the screening test were confirmed as false positive. All points of false positive were solitary, which tended to occur more frequently on superior visual field. A false negative of eight eyes out of 62 (12.9%) detected by the screening test was confirmed by the threshold test, which was more frequent on superior field and shown to be located more peripherally from the fixation point. There was no significant difference in either central sensitivity or age of the false positive and negative.
