Loss of sensitivity in central vision associated with reduced quality of life

INDIANAPOLIS — Loss of sensitivity in the central visual field may be associated with lower vision-related quality of life, especially in the inferior nasal point, according to a presentation at Academy 2024.
“In cases of early glaucoma, we’re figuring out if the central-most points on that 24-2 visual field have any relationship to vision-related quality of life,” Anupam Laul, OD, associate clinical professor at SUNY College of Optometry, said.
To do this, Laul and colleagues conducted a cross-sectional study of 83 patients (mean age, 72.6 years; 93% men) with primary
