“…Our results are in agreement with this finding; as indicated in Table 3, the Esterman score's absolute loading value larger was smaller than both monocular indices for all VRQoL scores, despite the larger number of test points (n = 120) in the Esterman test compared to the 24-2 VF (n = 52). Moreover, the Esterman test has much wider coverage (more than 130 degrees) than the 24-2 VF and has more test points concentrated in the central area, which are reported to be beneficial when predicting VRQoL2943. In addition, in contrary to the integrated VF, the Esterman test is an actual measure of the binocular VF, rather than an estimate of it, and therefore it has been used in many studies to evaluate the relationship between patients' VFs and VRQoL6114445464748.…”

The purpose of the study was to investigate the influence of VF and the VA on vision related quality of life (VRQoL) in advanced glaucoma. Subjects consist of 50 glaucoma patients with mean deviation (MD) less than −20 dB in at least one eye. Patients' VRQoL was assessed using the ‘Sumi questionnaire’. The impact of seven visual measures on VRQoL were compared using principal component regression: MDs of better and worse eyes with 10-2 and 24-2 Humphrey VFs, LogMAR VAs of better and worse eyes and the Esterman score. The root mean of the squared prediction error (RMSE) was calculated using leave-one-out cross validation. Better eye summary measurements were much more influential on VRQoL than corresponding worse eye measurements and Esterman score in every VRQoL task. In conclusion, in advanced glaucoma, VF parameters of the better eye are important for the VRQoL of the patient.

This study determines the relation between visual field impairment, visual functioning, and global quality of life in patients with glaucoma. Binocular visual field impairment was calculated from simultaneous Esterman visual field testing using the Humphrey automated perimeter. Visual acuity impairment, defined with the American Medical Association's Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment; visual functioning, measured with the VF-14 and the field test version of the National Eye Institute-Visual Functioning Questionnaire; and global quality of life, assessed with the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short Form Health Survey, were determined in 147 consecutive patients with glaucoma. None of the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short Form HealthSurvey domains demonstrated more than a weak correlation with visual field impairment. scores were moderately correlated (r=-0.58). Of the National Eye Institute-Visual Functioning Questionnaire scales, peripheral vision (r=\m=-\0.60), distance activities (r=\m=-\0.56), and vision-specific dependency (r=\m=-\0.56) were moderately correlated with visual field impairment; vision-specific social functioning, near activities, vision-specific role difficulties, general vision, vision-specific mental health, color vision, and driving were modestly correlated with visual field impairment (r value between \m=-\0.32and \m=-\0.55); visual pain was weakly correlated with visual field impairment; and general health and vision\x=req-\ specific expectations were not notably correlated with visual field impairment. Statistically adjusting for visual acuity weakened the correlations. The Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short Form Health Survey indicated that our patients with glaucoma were comparable with previously studied patients without severe systemic medical problems. However, the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short Form Health Survey scores did not correlate with visual field impairment in our study. Based on the moderate correlation between binocular visual field impairment with the VF-14 and the National Eye Institute-Visual Functioning Questionnaire, these questionnaires may be useful among patients with glaucoma.

“…Mainly, central vision and lower hemianopia were not weighted properly in the overall score. Therefore, Esterman developed his own scoring system, which is now known as the Esterman disability score (EDS)[ 8 – 11 ]. Esterman validated his scoring method in a study that included 2000 glaucoma patients and, in 1984, the AMA adopted the EDS as the standard for evaluating visual impairment[ 12 ].…”

PurposeTo compare the Esterman Disability Score (EDS) obtained with Goldmann perimetry (GP) testing and the Humphrey field analyzer (HFA) in low vision Japanese subjects. Subjects were also divided into groups by diagnosis to examine how disease influences EDS measurements.MethodsThe EDS was obtained using GP (GP-EDS) and the built-in testing program of the HFA (HFA-EDS). Tests were performed within 3 months of each other. Regression analyses were used to examine the relationship between GP-EDS and HFA-EDS.ResultsA total of 128 visually impaired subjects were included in this study. Subjects had low vision because of glaucoma (57 subjects), age-related macular degeneration (AMD, 17 subjects), retinitis pigmentosa (RP, 17 subjects), and other causes (37 subjects). The GP-EDS obtained was well-correlated with HFA-EDS (r = 0.87, P < 0.001) and it was possible to estimate HFA-EDS from GP-EDS. The GP-EDS was significantly lower than the HFA-EDS in eyes with glaucoma and RP. There was no significant difference between EDS values in eyes with AMD or other disease.ConclusionThe GP-EDS correlated well with the HFA-EDS. However, the relationship between the EDS measured with the two different testing modalities varies by disease.
