摘要：Purpose
To evaluate the relations between progression of glaucoma in visual field and peripapillary area change in normal tension glaucoma (NTG).
Methods
We respectively evaluated 66 patients (66 eyes) with normal tension glaucoma; these patients were classified as progressive glaucoma group and non-progressive glaucoma group by visual field test. Interobserver and intraobserver agreement was evaluated for qualitative assessment. Zone β change was measured by Image J (National Institute of Health, Bethesda, USA) by two methods. One method used paired t-test and the other method used CV (correlation of variation) to define significant progression of zone β.
Results
46 patients (46 eyes) were classified as progressive glaucoma and 20 patients (20 eyes) were classified as non-progressive glaucoma. There was no statistically significant different change of zone β between two groups and there were no changes of zone β over coefficient of variation (CV).
Conclusions
The measurement of change of zone β seems to be of no use in recognition of progression in normal tension glaucoma.
