Comparison Between MP-1 and Humphrey Visual Field Defects in Glaucoma and Retinitis Pigmentosa
Optometry and Vision Science, 08/16/2012
Acton JH et al. – The differences in results between the MP–1 and HFA for the two groups of patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and open–angle glaucoma (OAG) can be attributed to the different adaptation levels and to the dynamic range of test lights available for the two instruments. The clinician should also be aware of the possible consequences of the differences in the method of derivation of normative data for the two instruments, as this may affect the interpretation of visual field results.
