Summary

This trial is testing a new head-mounted device for visual field testing to see if it is as effective as the conventional visual field test.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals who can consent and have had a visual field test indicating normal or varying degrees of glaucomatous damage. It excludes those with anxiety disorders, severe vertigo, certain past eye surgeries (except cataract surgery), pregnancy, seizure disorders, extreme refractive errors, inability to make informed decisions, significant eye opacity, cardiac pacemakers or similar devices.
What is being tested?
The study tests a new head-mounted device for visual field testing against the standard Humphrey Visual Field Analyzer in patients with different stages of glaucoma. Each participant will use both devices over five weekly visits and complete questionnaires on comfort and satisfaction.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-invasive testing rather than medication or surgery, side effects are minimal but may include discomfort from wearing the head-mounted device or fatigue from frequent testing.
