Abstract

Purpose To classify eyes as slow or fast glaucoma progressors in patients with primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) using an integrated approach combining optic nerve head (ONH) structural features and sector-based visual field (VF) functional parameters. Design Retrospective longitudinal study Participants PACG patients from glaucoma clinics Methods PACG patients with ≥ 5 reliable VF tests over ≥ 5 years were included. Visual field progression was assessed using Zeiss Forum Software, with the baseline VF test selected within six months of the optical coherence tomography (OCT) scan. Fast progression was defined as a VF index (VFI) decline of
