| Description |
Patients with large dense central scotomas may be unable to reliably complete Stimulus size III (Stim III) Humphrey Visual Fields (HVF). These patients, however, do considerably better with Stimulus size V (Stim V) HVF. In Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) the reliability of the HVF varies over the course of the disease. The purpose of this study was to determine if Stim III and Stim V mean deviation (MD) calculations are equivalent in patients with central scotomas from LHON. |
