Outline of Final Research Achievements

A database of glaucomatous visual field was developed with 1348 eyes from 10 institutes in Japan. Using this database, it was suggested it was useful to regress visual field result against intraocular pressure integrated time rather than regressing against time. Also, it was suggested it was usefl to use deep learning method to detect early glaucomatous visual field change. It was suggested it was useful to combine these approaches with the variational Bayes linear regression, and the development of visual field measurement algorithm using these outcomes is on-going.
