Abstract

Purpose: To assess the agreement between structural (optical coherence tomography [OCT]) and functional (visual field [VF]) glaucomatous damage with an automated method and deviation/probability maps, and to compare this method to a metric method. Methods: Wide-field spectral-domain OCT scans, including the disc and macula, and 24-2 and 10-2 VFs were obtained from 45 healthy control (H) eyes/individuals, and 53 eyes/patients with 24-2 mean deviation (MD) better than -6 dB diagnosed as "definite glaucoma" (DG) by experts. Abnormal structure-abnormal function (aS-aF) agreement was assessed with
