RESUMO
Background/Objectives: This study aimed to examine the postoperative changes in the corneal biomechanical properties between solo cataract surgery and solo microhook ab interno trabeculotomy (LOT). Methods: This retrospective case-control study included 37 eyes belonging to 26 patients who underwent solo cataract surgery and 37 eyes belonging to 31 patients who underwent solo µLOT. These two groups were matched according to their preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP), axial length (AL), and age. Corneal Visualization Scheimpflug Technology (Corvis ST) was used to obtain four biomechanical parameters representing the corneal stiffness or corneal deformation at the highest concavity, including stiffness parameter A1 (SP-A1), stress-strain index (SSI), peak distance (PD), and deflection amplitude max (DefAmpMax). These parameters were compared preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively, and between the two surgical groups. Results: Preoperatively, the patients' IOP, age, and AL, as well as their results in four Corvis ST parameters, were similar between the two groups (p > 0.05). No significant difference was observed in SP-A1; however, PD and DefAmpMax were significantly larger, and SSI was significantly smaller postoperatively in the LOT group than in the cataract group. Conclusions: Corneal stiffness was reduced, and the cornea was more deformed with LOT than cataract surgery.
RESUMO
Minimally invasive glaucoma surgery has expanded the surgical treatment options in glaucoma, particularly when combined with cataract surgery. It is clinically relevant to understand the associated postoperative changes in biomechanical properties because they are influential on the measurement of intraocular pressure (IOP) and play an important role in the pathogenesis of open-angle glaucoma (OAG). This retrospective case-control study included OAG patients who underwent cataract surgery combined with microhook ab interno trabeculotomy (µLOT group: 53 eyes of 36 patients) or iStent implantation (iStent group: 59 eyes of 37 patients) and 62 eyes of 42 solo cataract patients without glaucoma as a control group. Changes in ten biomechanical parameters measured with the Ocular Response Analyzer and Corneal Visualization Scheimpflug Technology (Corvis ST) at 3 and 6 months postoperatively relative to baseline were compared among the 3 groups. In all the groups, IOP significantly decreased postoperatively. In the µLOT and control groups, significant changes in Corvis ST-related parameters, including stiffness parameter A1 and stressâstrain index, indicated that the cornea became softer postoperatively. In contrast, these parameters were unchanged in the iStent group. Apart from IOP reduction, the results show variations in corneal biomechanical changes from minimally invasive glaucoma surgery combined with cataract surgery.

PURPOSE: To investigate the clinical validity of the Guided Progression Analysis definition (GPAD) and cluster-based definition (CBD) with the Humphrey Field Analyzer (HFA) 10-2 test in retinitis pigmentosa (RP). METHODS: Ten non-progressive RP visual fields (VFs) (HFA 10-2 test) were simulated for each of 10 VFs of 111 eyes (10 simulations × 10 VF sequencies × 111 eyes = 111,000 VFs; Dataset 1). Using these simulated VFs, the specificity of GPAD for the detection of progression was determined. Using this dataset, similar analyses were conducted for the CBD, in which the HFA 10-2 test was divided into four quadrants. Subsequently, the Hybrid Definition was designed by combining the GPAD and CBD; various conditions of the GPAD and CBD were altered to approach a specificity of 95.0%. Subsequently, actual HFA 10-2 tests of 116 RP eyes (10 VFs each) were collected (Dataset 2), and true positive rate, true negative rate, false positive rate, and the time required to detect VF progression were evaluated and compared across the GPAD, CBD, and Hybrid Definition. RESULTS: Specificity values were 95.4% and 98.5% for GPAD and CBD, respectively. There were no significant differences in true positive rate, true negative rate, and false positive rate between the GPAD, CBD, and Hybrid Definition. The GPAD and Hybrid Definition detected progression significantly earlier than the CBD (at 4.5, 5.0, and 4.5 years, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The GPAD and the optimized Hybrid Definition exhibited similar ability for the detection of progression, with the specificity reaching 95.4%.

INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this study was to compare the surgical outcomes between ab interno trabeculotomy (LOT) and iStent inject W implantation (iStent) both combined with cataract surgery, matching the background factors including age, intraocular pressure (IOP), medication score, central corneal thickness (CCT), and axial length. METHODS: A total of 100 eyes from 75/79 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma were included in the LOT/iStent groups. The background factors were matched between the two groups using the propensity score. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in age, IOP, medication score, CCT, and axial length, preoperatively. The postoperative medication scores were 1.3 ± 1.2 and 1.2 ± 1.2 in the LOT and iStent groups. The postoperative IOPs were 12.8 ± 2.8 and 13.1 ± 2.4 mmHg in the LOT and iStent groups, respectively. The changes in the medication score were - 0.64 ± 1.4 and - 0.44 ± 1.6 in the LOT and iStent groups, respectively. The changes in the IOP were - 2.1 ± 3.3 and - 1.5 ± 3.0 mmHg in the LOT and iStent groups, respectively. These values were not significantly different between the two groups. The postoperative IOP and changes in the IOP were significantly associated with preoperative IOP and CCT. There was no significant difference in the occurrence of postoperative complications (hyphema, 11.0% and 6.0%, and transient ocular hypertension, 8.0% and 5.0%, in the LOT and iStent groups, respectively). CONCLUSION: LOT and iStent have similar surgical outcomes with sufficient safety. Postoperative IOP was significantly associated with preoperative IOP and CCT in both groups.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: We recently constructed an algorithm to measure visual field (VF) using the variational Bayes linear regression (VBLR). This algorithm enabled a faster VF measurement than the Swedish interactive thresholding algorithm (SITA) standard while maintaining the test-retest reproducibility (Murata H, et al. Br J Ophthalmol 2021). The current study aimed to compare the structure-function relationship between the SITA standard and VBLR. METHOD: In 78 eyes of 56 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma, VF measurements were conducted using both SITA standard and VBLR VF, as well as spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. The structure-function relationship was investigated between visual sensitivity and circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer in the whole VF. This analysis was repeated for each of the 12 sectors (30 degrees). The strength of the structure-function relationship was evaluated using the second-order bias-corrected Akaike Information Criterion (AICc) index. RESULT: In the whole VF, AICc values of SITA standard and VBLR were 601.6 and 597.3, respectively. The relative likelihood that VBLR had a better structure-function relationship than the SITA standard was 88.2% (when the entire field was averaged) or 99.9% (when all test points were analyzed in the pointwise manner). With the sector-wise analysis, SITA standard had a better structure-function relationship than VBLR in 1 sector (Superior sector in the retina), whereas VBLR had a better structure-function relationship than SITA standard in 4 sectors (Supero-Nasal, Infero-Nasal, Inferior, and Infero-Temporal sectors) with >95% relative likelihood. CONCLUSION: Although it depends on locations and similar between SITA standard and VBLR-VF, but VBLR-VF had a better structure-function relationship than the SITA standard overall.

To investigate differences in biomechanical properties focusing on stiffness parameters between normal, treatment-naïve primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), and treated POAG eyes. Retrospective case-control study, This study included 46 treatment-naïve POAG eyes, 46 POAG eyes treated with prostaglandin analogues, and 49 normal eyes used as controls; matched in terms of age and axial length. Corneal hysteresis (CH) and corneal resistance factor (CRF) were measured using an ocular response analyzer (ORA). Fifteen biomechanical parameters were measured with the Corneal Visualization Scheimpflug Technology (Corvis ST), including biomechanical glaucoma factor (BGF) and two stiffness parameters of 'SP A1' and 'stress-strain index (SSI)', which were compared among the three groups. Additionally, the area under the curve (AUC) values of the receiver-operating curve to discriminate control and treatment-naïve POAG eyes were calculated for BGF and CH. Treatment-naïve POAG eyes had higher 'SSI' than normal eyes even after controlling for IOP (p < 0.05, Tukey-Cramer test). Treated POAG eyes had significantly lower CRF, and higher BGF than treatment-naïve POAG eyes. There were also significant differences in CH or SP A1 among the three groups. BGF and CH had similar AUC values (0.61 and 0.59). Treatment-naïve POAG eyes had stiffer corneas compared to normal eyes, which seemed to result from the material/structure of the cornea rather than higher intraocular pressure. Antiglaucoma topical medication alters biomechanical properties measured with Corvis ST. These results are important for understanding the pathogenesis and improving the management of POAG.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: To investigate the association between visual acuity (VA) and visual field (VF) and its reproducibility in patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP). SUBJECTS/METHODS: The study cohort comprised 227 eyes of 227 patients with RP. The reproducibility of two Humphrey VF tests (10-2 Swedish Interactive Threshold Algorithm [SITA] tests) performed within a period of 3 months was calculated using the root mean squared error (RMSE) of each VF test point's sensitivity. The association between the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) VA and VF sensitivity was investigated. Additionally, the relationship between RMSE and age, fixation loss, false positives, false negatives, and logMAR VA was determined. RESULTS: The association between visual sensitivity and VA was most tight at the fovea, and it became weak toward the peripheral region in an eccentric manner. VF reproducibility appreciably increased as VA decreased. In particular, reproducibility was significantly decreased when logMAR VA was >0.5 compared with logMAR VA ≤ 0. CONCLUSION: Reproducibility of VF tests decreases with a decrease in VA. Careful consideration is necessary when a patient's logMAR VA is >0.5.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the number of examinations required to precisely predict the future central 10-degree visual field (VF) test and to evaluate the effect of fitting non-linear models, including quadratic regression, exponential regression, logistic regression, and M-estimator robust regression model, for eyes with glaucoma. 180 eyes from 133 open angle glaucoma patients with a minimum of 13 Humphrey Field Analyzer 10-2 SITA standard VF tests were analyzed in this study. Using trend analysis with ordinary least squares linear regression (OLSLR), the first, second, and third future VFs were predicted in a point-wise (PW) manner using a varied number of prior VF sequences, and mean absolute errors (MAE) were calculated. The number of VFs needed to reach the minimum 95% confidence interval (CI) of the MAE of the OLSLR was investigated. We also examined the effect of applying other non-linear models. When predicting the first, second, and third future VFs using OLSLR, the minimum MAE was obtained using VF1-12 (2.15 ± 0.98 dB), VF1-11 (2.33 ± 1.10 dB), and VF1-10 (2.63 ± 1.36 dB), respectively. To reach the 95% CI of these MAEs, 10, 10, and 8 VFs were needed for the first, second and third future VF predictions, respectively. No improvement was observed by applying non-linear regression models. As a conclusion, approximately 8-10 VFs were needed to achieve an accurate prediction of PW VF sensitivity of the 10-degree central VF.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: The accuracy of pattern deviation (PD) in estimating the damage to the glaucomatous visual field (VF) in the central 10° in eyes with glaucoma and cataract is unclear. METHODS: This retrospective study includes 63 eyes of 52 glaucoma patients who successfully underwent cataract surgery or cataract surgery plus iStent implantation. Using the Humphrey Field Analyser 10-2 test, VF was measured within 6 months preoperatively and postoperatively (VFpre and VFpost, respectively). The mean total deviation values in VFpost (mTDpost) indicates glaucomatous damage without cataract and the difference between this value and mean PD values in VFpre (mPDpre) was evaluated (εmPD). The effect of cataract was then evaluated as the difference between mTDpost and mTDpre (ΔmTD), while the effects of mTDpost and ΔmTD on εmPD were also assessed. In addition, based on preoperative visual acuity (VApre) and VFpre, the optimal model for predicting mTDpost was identified. The error of this method (εOptimalModel) was estimated as the difference against mTDpost, which was compared with εmPD. RESULTS: Compared with mTDpre, there was a significant improvement in mTDpost (p=0.028). A significant difference was observed between mPDpre and mTDpost (p<0.001). Further, εmPD significantly increased with the increase of mTDpost or ΔmTD (p<0.001 and p=0.0444, respectively). The absolute εOptimalModel was significantly smaller than the absolute εmPD (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: This study warns clinicians that PD of the central 10° VF might underestimate the glaucomatous VF damage with the progression of glaucoma and overestimate it as a cataract progresses.
RESUMO
Purpose: The detailed effects of age and systemic factors on intraocular pressure (IOP) have not been fully understood because of the lack of a large-scale longitudinal investigation. This study aimed to investigate the effect of various systemic factors on the longitudinal change of IOP. Methods: There were a total of 20,909 eyes of 10,471 subjects from a health checkup cohort that were followed up for systemic factors: (i) age at baseline, (ii) sex, (iii) time series body mass index (BMI), (iv) time series smoking habits, (v) time series systolic and diastolic blood pressures (SBP and DBP), and (vi) time series 19 blood examinations (all of the time series data was acquired at each annual visit), along with IOP annually for at least 8 years. Then the longitudinal effect of the systemic factors on the change of IOP was investigated. Results: IOP significantly decreased by -0.084 mm Hg/year. BMI, SBP, DBP, smoking habits, total triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and glycosylated hemoglobin A1c were not significantly associated with the change of IOP. Higher values of age, aspartate aminotransferase, hemoglobin, platelet, and calcium were suggested to be significantly associated with the decrease of IOP, whereas higher alanine aminotransferase, guanosine triphosphate, white blood cell count, red blood cell count, and female gender were significantly associated with the increase of IOP. Conclusions: Age, aspartate aminotransferase, hemoglobin, platelet, calcium, alanine aminotransferase, guanosine triphosphate, white blood cell count, red blood cell count, and gender were the systemic variables significantly associated with the change of IOP.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: To validate a deep learning algorithm to diagnose glaucoma from fundus photography obtained with a smartphone. METHODS: A training dataset consisting of 1364 colour fundus photographs with glaucomatous indications and 1768 colour fundus photographs without glaucomatous features was obtained using an ordinary fundus camera. The testing dataset consisted of 73 eyes of 73 patients with glaucoma and 89 eyes of 89 normative subjects. In the testing dataset, fundus photographs were acquired using an ordinary fundus camera and a smartphone. A deep learning algorithm was developed to diagnose glaucoma using a training dataset. The trained neural network was evaluated by prediction result of the diagnostic of glaucoma or normal over the test datasets, using images from both an ordinary fundus camera and a smartphone. Diagnostic accuracy was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AROC). RESULTS: The AROC with a fundus camera was 98.9% and 84.2% with a smartphone. When validated only in eyes with advanced glaucoma (mean deviation value < -12 dB, N=26), the AROC with a fundus camera was 99.3% and 90.0% with a smartphone. There were significant differences between these AROC values using different cameras. CONCLUSION: The usefulness of a deep learning algorithm to automatically screen for glaucoma from smartphone-based fundus photographs was validated. The algorithm had a considerable high diagnostic ability, particularly in eyes with advanced glaucoma.

BACKGROUND/AIM: To investigate the clinical validity of the Guided Progression Analysis definition (GPAD) and cluster-based definition (CBD) with the Humphrey Field Analyzer 10-2 test in diagnosing glaucomatous visual field (VF) progression, and to introduce a novel definition with optimised specificity by combining the 'any-location' and 'cluster-based' approaches (hybrid definition). METHODS: 64 400 stable glaucomatous VFs were simulated from 664 pairs of 10-2 tests (10 sets × 10 VF series × 664 eyes; data set 1). Using these simulated VFs, the specificity to detect progression and the effects of changing the parameters (number of test locations or consecutive VF tests, and percentile cut-off values) were investigated. The hybrid definition was designed as the combination where the specificity was closest to 95.0%. Subsequently, another 5000 actual glaucomatous 10-2 tests from 500 eyes (10 VFs each) were collected (data set 2), and their accuracy (sensitivity, specificity and false positive rate) and the time needed to detect VF progression were evaluated. RESULTS: The specificity values calculated using data set 1 with GPAD and CBD were 99.6% and 99.8%. Using data set 2, the hybrid definition had a higher sensitivity than GPAD and CBD, without detriment to the specificity or false positive rate. The hybrid definition also detected progression significantly earlier than GPAD and CBD (at 3.1 years vs 4.2 years and 4.1 years, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: GPAD and CBD had specificities of 99.6% and 99.8%, respectively. A novel hybrid definition (with a specificity of 95.5%) had higher sensitivity and enabled earlier detection of progression.

AIM: To evaluate the usefulness of the application of the clustering method to the trend analysis (sectorwise regression) in comparison with the pointwise linear regression (PLR). METHODS: This study included 153 eyes of 101 patients with open-angle glaucoma. With PLR, the total deviation (TD) values of the 10th visual field (VF) were predicted using the shorter VF sequences (from first 3 to 9) by extrapolating TD values against time in a pointwise manner. Then, 68 test points were stratified into 29 sectors. In each sector, the mean of TD values was calculated and allocated to all test points belonging to the sector. Subsequently, the TD values of the 10th VF were predicted by extrapolating the allocated TD value against time in a pointwise manner. Similar analyses were conducted to predict the 11th-16th VFs using the first 10 VFs. RESULTS: When predicting the 10th VF using the shorter sequences, the mean absolute error (MAE) values were significantly smaller in the sectorwise regression than in PLR. When predicting from the 11th and 16th VFs using the first 10 VFs, the MAE values were significantly larger in the sectorwise regression than in PLR when predicting the 11th VF; however, no significant difference was observed with other VF predictions. CONCLUSION: Accurate prediction was achieved using the sectorwise regression, in particular when a small number of VFs were used in the prediction. The accuracy of the sectorwise regression was not hampered in longer follow-up compared with PLR.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: We previously reported that the visual field (VF) prediction model using the variational Bayes linear regression (VBLR) is useful for accurately predicting VF progression in glaucoma (Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci. 2014, 2018). We constructed a VF measurement algorithm using VBLR, and the purpose of this study was to investigate its usefulness. METHOD: 122 eyes of 73 patients with open-angle glaucoma were included in the current study. VF measurement was performed using the currently proposed VBLR programme with AP-7700 perimetry (KOWA). VF measurements were also conducted using the Swedish interactive thresholding algorithm (SITA) standard programme with Humphrey field analyser. VF measurements were performed using the 24-2 test grid. Visual sensitivities, test-retest reproducibility and measurement duration were compared between the two algorithms. RESULT: Mean mean deviation (MD) values with SITA standard were -7.9 and -8.7 dB (first and second measurements), whereas those with VBLR-VF were -8.2 and -8.0 dB, respectively. There were no significant differences across these values. The correlation coefficient of MD values between the 2 algorithms was 0.97 or 0.98. Test-retest reproducibility did not differ between the two algorithms. Mean measurement duration with SITA standard was 6 min and 02 s or 6 min and 00 s (first or second measurement), whereas a significantly shorter duration was associated with VBLR-VF (5 min and 23 s or 5 min and 30 s). CONCLUSION: VBLR-VF reduced test duration while maintaining the same accuracy as the SITA-standard.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the minimum number of visual fields (VFs) required to precisely predict future VFs in eyes with retinitis pigmentosa (RP). METHODS: A series of 12 VFs (Humphrey Field Analyzer 10-2 test (8.9 years in average) were analysed from 102 eyes of 52 patients with RP. The absolute error to predict the 12th VF using the prior 11 VFs was calculated in a pointwise manner, using the linear regression, and the 95% CI range was determined. Then, using 3-10 initial VFs, next VFs (4th to 11th VFs, respectively) were also predicted. The minimum number of VFs required for the mean absolute prediction error to reach the 95% CI was identified. Similar analyses were iterated for the second and third next VF predictions. Similar analyses were conducted using mean deviation (MD). RESULTS: In the pointwise analysis, the minimum number of VFs required to reach the 95% CI for the 12th VF was five (first and second next VF predictions) and six (third next VF prediction). For the MD analysis, three (first and second next VF predictions) and four (third next VF prediction) VFs were required to reach 95% CI for the 12th VF. CONCLUSIONS: The minimum number of VFs required to obtain accurate predictions of the future VF was five or six in the pointwise analysis and three or four in the analysis with MD.
RESUMO
Purpose: To investigate whether a correction based on a Humphrey field analyzer (HFA) 24-2/30-2 visual field (VF) can improve the prediction performance of a deep learning model to predict the HFA 10-2 VF test from macular optical coherence tomography (OCT) measurements. Methods: This is a multicenter, cross-sectional study. The training dataset comprised 493 eyes of 285 subjects (407, open-angle glaucoma [OAG]; 86, normative) who underwent HFA 10-2 testing and macular OCT. The independent testing dataset comprised 104 OAG eyes of 82 subjects who had undergone HFA 10-2 test, HFA 24-2/30-2 test, and macular OCT. A convolutional neural network (CNN) DL model was trained to predict threshold sensitivity (TH) values in HFA 10-2 from retinal thickness measured by macular OCT. The predicted TH values was modified by pattern-based regularization (PBR) and corrected with HFA 24-2/30-2. Absolute error (AE) of mean TH values and mean absolute error (MAE) of TH values were compared between the CNN-PBR alone model and the CNN-PBR corrected with HFA 24-2/30-2. Results: AE of mean TH values was lower in the CNN-PBR with HFA 24-2/30-2 correction than in the CNN-PBR alone (1.9dB vs. 2.6dB; P = 0.006). MAE of TH values was lower in the CNN-PBR with correction compared to the CNN-PBR alone (4.2dB vs. 5.3 dB; P < 0.001). The inferior temporal quadrant showed lower prediction errors compared with other quadrants. Conclusions: The performance of a DL model to predict 10-2 VF from macular OCT was improved by the correction with HFA 24-2/30-2. Translational Relevance: This model can reduce the burden of additional HFA 10-2 by making the best use of routinely performed HFA 24-2/30-2 and macular OCT.

Purpose: A method of evaluating central visual field (VF) progression in eyes with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) has still to be established. We previously reported the potential merit of applying a binomial test to pointwise linear regression (binomial PLR) in glaucoma progression. In the current study, we investigated the usefulness of binomial PLR in eyes with RP. Methods: A series of 10 VFs (VF 1-10, Humphrey field analyzer, 10-2 test) from 196 eyes of 103 patients with RP were collected retrospectively. The PLR was performed by regressing the total deviation of all test points with the complete series of 10 VFs. The accuracy (positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and false-positive rate) and the time required to detect VF progression with shorter VF series (from VF 1-5 to VF 1-9) were compared across the binomial PLR, a permutation analysis of PLR (PoPLR), and a mean deviation (MD) trend analysis. Results: In evaluating VF progression, the binomial PLR was comparable with the PoPLR and MD trend analyses in its positive predictive value (0.55 to 0.95), negative predictive value (0.67 to 0.92), and false-positive rate (0.01 to 0.05). The binomial PLR required significantly less time to detect VF progression (5.0 ± 2.0 years) than the PoPLR and MD trend analyses (P < 0.01, P < 0.001, respectively). Conclusions: The application of a binomial PLR achieved reliable and earlier detection of central VF progression in eyes with RP. Translational Relevance: A binomial PLR was useful in assessing VF progression in RP.

Purpose: To investigate whether retinal structural parameters, including positions of the optic disc and major retinal arteries, affect glaucomatous progression of the visual field (VF). Methods: In this cohort study, 116 eyes of 73 patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) were included. VFs were measured using the Humphrey Field Analyzer 24-2 program and the VF was divided into seven sectors according to the corresponding optic disc angle. Average total deviation (TD) was calculated in each sector. Positions of major retinal arteries in the superotemporal and inferotemporal areas were decided by identifying the points where the retinal artery intersected the 3.4-mm-diameter circle around the optic disc. The relationship between sectorial TD VF progression rate and eight variables (age, mean and standard deviation of intraocular pressure during the observation period, baseline sectorial TD value, papillomacular bundle tilt angle, and axial length, along with superior/inferior arterial angle) was investigated. Results: The main outcome measures were the association between retinal structural parameters and glaucomatous progression of VF. The superior retinal artery angular position was positively associated with sectorial TD progression rates in two central sectors in the inferior hemifield, which suggests faster VF progression where superior retinal artery angles are narrow. Papillomacular bundle tilt was not associated with TD progression rate in any sector. Conclusions: Progression of the inferior VF was associated with the superior retinal artery angular position in this study of POAG.

Purpose: To investigate the relationship between biomechanical glaucoma factor (BGF) measured with Corvis ST and glaucomatous visual field (VF) progression, compared to corneal hysteresis (CH) measured with ocular response analyzer using a longitudinal dataset of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). The discriminative powers of BGF and CH were also compared using a cross-sectional dataset. Methods: The longitudinal dataset included 166 POAG eyes. The rate of VF change during the follow-up period was evaluated using the mean of 52 pointwise total deviations in the Humphrey 24-2 field test. Variables associated with the VF progression rate were identified from BGF, CH, age, baseline VF severity, and intraocular pressure during the VF follow-up period by identifying the optimal model. The cross-sectional dataset included 68 POAG eyes and 68 healthy eyes. Using this dataset, the area under the curve (AUC) values of the receiver-operating curve were compared between CH and BGF. Results: The optimal multivariate linear mixed model to describe the VF rate included age and CH, but not BGF. Between POAG and healthy eyes, CH was statistically different (P < 0.001), although this was not the case with BGF. The AUC values were 0.61 and 0.71 for BGF and CH, respectively (P = 0.027). Conclusions: CH, but not BGF, was associated with VF progression in POAG patients under treatment. BGF was not useful to discriminate POAG between treated and normal eyes.
