AIMS: To compare the efficacy of the high specificity Frequency Doubling Technology (FDT) Perimeter Screening Program (C-20-1) to standard threshold automated perimetry in the diagnosis of open-angle glaucoma.
METHODS: A total of 100 consecutively presenting patients attending a glaucoma clinic who volunteered for the study (approximately 30% of whom were attending for an initial visit) were examined with the FDT C-20-1 Screening Program and with the Humphrey Field Analyzer (HFA) SITA Fast algorithm and Program 24-2.
RESULTS: Of the patients, 17 were excluded due to unreliable visual field results or non-glaucomatous ocular abnormalities. In all, 10 patients were diagnosed as normal, 54 with open-angle glaucoma, eight with ocular hypertension, and 11 as glaucoma suspects. Of the 54 glaucomatous patients, 45 exhibited high-tension glaucoma and nine normal tension glaucoma. Perimetry with the HFA gave a sensitivity of 81.5% for the combined category of glaucoma and glaucoma suspect and a specificity of 83.3% for the combined category of normal and ocular hypertension. Perimetry with the FDT gave a sensitivity of 74.5% and a specificity of 85.2% compared to that of the HFA.
CONCLUSION: In the detection of glaucoma, Program C-20-1 of the FDT perimeter exhibits high specificity. It exhibits low sensitivity for the detection of mild loss but high sensitivity for advanced field loss relative to Program 24-2 and the SITA Fast algorithm of the HFA.
