New Test To Screen For Glaucoma Damage
A recent paper published in the Journal of Glaucoma shows a new visual evoked potential (VEP) technique to be a fast, objective method to screen for functional damage in glaucomatous eyes. The technique, called short duration transient VEP (SD-tVEP), significantly decreases test duration and provides less subjectivity in evaluating results compared to traditional VEP methods. The study was carried out at New York Eye and Ear Infirmary (New York, NY) and resulted in the paper "Short Duration Transient Visual Evoked Potentials in Glaucomatous Eyes." The researchers investigated the correlation between (Read more...)
