METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DIAGNOSIS OF OCULAR DISEASE

摘要

An aspect of the present invention provides a method for early detection of ocular disease such as glaucoma in a subject. The method comprises the steps of: successively applying a plurality of test stimuli at different eccentricities to the subject's retina, wherein each of the test stimuli is adjusted for differences in spatial or temporal summation resulting from application of the test stimuli; determining visual field capability loss of the subject in response to each of the plurality of test stimuli; and diagnosing ocular disease in the subject if the subject's visual field capability loss in response to each of the test stimuli is substantially equal.

1. A method for early detection of ocular disease in a subject, the method comprising:
successively applying a plurality of test stimuli at different eccentricities to a retina of the subject, wherein each of said test stimuli is adjusted for differences in spatial or temporal summation resulting from application of said test stimuli; determining visual field capability loss of said subject in response to each of said plurality of test stimuli; and diagnosing ocular disease in said subject if said visual field capability loss in response to each of said test stimuli is substantially equal.
