A focused guide to central vision in glaucoma

Tutul Chakravarti’s guide examines central visual field defects across early and advanced glaucoma, bringing together their detection, diagnosis, and management. Its chapter sequence moves from types of glaucomatous field loss and macular damage to the use and limitations of specific testing approaches, including 24-2, 10-2, 24-2C, and Octopus G patterns. The book also considers how central defects relate to disease staging and severity. More than 100 figures, 20 tables, and 10 flowcharts support its presentation of scientific data alongside clinical practice. The contents make central vision assessment—not glaucoma in general—the organizing subject of this clinical reference.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Ophthalmologists and eye-care clinicians working with glaucoma assessment or management
  • Medical readers seeking focused material on central visual field defects and testing methods
  • Readers who value a structured clinical reference with figures, tables, and flowcharts

Book overview

About this book
Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness, making early detection and management crucial. Protecting central vision is the ultimate goal of glaucoma treatment, yet common visual field tests often overlook early signs of central visual field defects (CVFDs). These defects can significantly impact the quality of life for glaucoma patients.
This book offers a comprehensive guide to understanding CVFDs at all stages of glaucoma, from early detection to advanced cases. With over 100 figures, 20 tables, and 10 flowcharts, it provides cutting-edge insights into the detection, diagnosis, and management of CVFDs, combining scientific data with clinical practice.
