Abstract
The efficacy of short-wavelength automated perimetry (SWAP) and conventional automated perimetry (CAP) in detecting the progression of glaucomatous visual field loss was compared. After 3 years, CAP detected progressive visual field damage in 3 (13.6%) of 22 eyes, while SWAP detected progressive visual field damage in 8 (36.6%) of 22 eyes. Thus, SWAP was more efficient than CAP in detecting progressive visual field losses in glaucomatous patients with incipient defects.
