Clinical distinction between nasal optic disc hypoplasia (NOH) and glaucoma with NOH-like temporal visual field defects
PURPOSE To report on the clinically important differences between nasal optic hypoplasia (NOH) and glaucoma with NOH-like temporal visual field defect (VFD). METHOD Five NOH (four bilateral and one unilateral) patients, three unilateral NOH patients with glaucoma, and two glaucoma patients with NOH-like temporal VFD were clinically characterized. Superior segmental optic nerve hypoplasia was ...

متن کاملVisual field defects in optic nerve hypoplasia.
Case 1—A nine-year-old white girl was seen at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute in December, 1969, because of poor vision. The parents first sus pected that she had decreased vision at age two and one-half years after a bout of measles. At the age of six years, two examiners had recorded her visual acuity at 20/200 in each eye. At the age of seven years, because of the poor vision and pale disks...
متن کاملCorrelation between the progression of optic disc and visual field changes in glaucoma.
Visual field test and optic disc evaluation are the standard examination techniques used to detect the onset and progression of glaucoma. This explorative study was performed to assess the temporal correlation between visual field and optic disc changes in eyes with ocular hypertension and well-established glaucoma. Eighty-six hypertensive and 16 glaucomatous eyes were followed up for a period ...
متن کاملQuantitative relationship between cupping of the optic disc and visual field loss in chronic simple glaucoma.
The extent of cupping was measured from optic disc photographs of 300 patients with ocular hypertension and suspected or established chronic simple glaucoma, and their visual fields were recorded. The incidence of field defects increased as the vertical cup:disc ratio increased, a value of 0-70 for this ratio being a particularly useful guide to the presence or absence of field loss. There was ...
