Evaluation of Objective Perimetry Using Chromatic Multifocal Pupillometer

Objective Perimetry in Normal Subjects,Glaucoma Patients and Retinal Dystrophy Patients


Sponsor

Sheba Medical Center

Enrollment

200 participants

Start Date

Dec 1, 2013

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Objective perimetry can better monitor visual field defects in retinal dystrophy and Glaucoma patients than conventional subjective perimetry. The PLR ( Pupil Light Reflex to short and long wavelength stimuli should be significantly lower compared to healthy participants in areas of visual field defects in retinal dystrophy and Glaucoma patients.


Eligibility

Min Age: 18 YearsMax Age: 80 Years

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study is evaluating a new, more objective way to test the visual field (how well you can see things to the sides while looking straight ahead) in people with glaucoma, using a special type of light stimulus to detect early vision loss more accurately than standard tests. **You may be eligible if...** - You have been diagnosed with glaucoma or are at high risk for glaucoma due to elevated eye pressure - You are between 18 and 80 years old - You have clear enough vision and eye health to complete the tests - You are willing to attend several follow-up testing sessions **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have significant vision loss from causes other than glaucoma - You have had major eye surgery (other than cataract surgery) that affects your visual field results - You have conditions that make it difficult to reliably complete vision tests (such as neurological diseases affecting vision) - You cannot complete the required follow-up visits Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
