  • Title: [Flicker perimetry (CFF) in glaucoma diagnosis].
    Author: Dudziński A, Zawojska I, Kinasz R.
    Journal: Klin Oczna; 2003; 105(5):283-7. PubMed ID: 14746180.
    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: Evaluation of CFF perimetry results in patients with suspected glaucoma. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Visual field was measured on Octopus 301 perimeter with option "flicker perimetry". 49 patients (98 eyes) with suspected glaucoma were tested. Standard W/W perimetry revealed glaucomatous visual field defect in one eye, but not in the second eye. Patients with cataract and diabetes were not taken into consideration. RESULTS: Defects in CFF perimetry tests were found in 71.4% of cases, but in W/W perimetry test in 50.0% of cases. CONCLUSIONS: Perimetry CFF is useful for early detection and follow up of glaucoma. Indices MD and LV may be used for those purposes.
