Abstract

Detection of visual field progression is of critical importance in the management of patients with glaucoma; however, there is no agreed upon set of criteria for the definition of progression. The most commonly utilized method of progression detection in clinical practice may be subjective assessment of serial visual fields. Event-based and trend-based approaches to the analysis of serial visual field data are quite powerful and used in clinical practice and in clinical research. Recent advances in analysis of visual field progression are discussed in this review article.
