Visual field loss in Sturge–Weber syndrome and phakomatosis pigmentovascularis: Implications for glaucoma assessment
By Tanvi Choudhary and Sirisha Senthil.
Abstract
Objectives
To evaluate the patterns of visual field (VF) defects in patients with Sturge–Weber syndrome (SWS) and phakomatosis pigmentovascularis (PPV) using standard automated perimetry.
Methods
This retrospective study analyzed the clinical and VF data of patients with SWS or PPV undergoing treatment for glaucoma and had VF test data over a 27-year period. VF defects were classified as glaucomatous, neurological, combined, or unclassifiable. Statistical analyses were performed to determine factors associated with type of field defects.
