Diffuse Visual Field Defects in Combined Simple and Glaucomatous Optic Nerve Atrophy (ww-Perimetry)

Diffuse Visual Field Defects in Combined Simple and Glaucomatous Optic Nerve Atrophy (ww-Perimetry)
In the w-w-perimetry we see nonspecific defects. Associated with the reduced retinal nerve fiber layer thickness predominantly in the temporal area of both eyes including the papillo-macular bundle visual field defects are focussed likewise on the area between papilla and macula. Nevertheless, there are also diffuse visual field defects predominantly in the visual field that belongs to the temporal retina. Mean defect: OD 17,8dB und OS 18,2dB
