Summary

This trial is looking at a new way to test the vision of patients with glaucoma using a Virtual Reality (VR) headset instead of the traditional Humphrey Field Analyzer (HFA). The VR

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals with glaucoma. It's testing a new way to check their field of vision using a Virtual Reality (VR) headset, which could be more comfortable and convenient than current methods.
What is being tested?
The study compares traditional visual field testing using the Humphrey Field Analyzer with a novel VR-based test. The goal is to see if the VR test can accurately assess visual function in both healthy eyes and those affected by glaucoma.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-invasive perimetric testing, side effects are minimal but may include discomfort from wearing the VR headset or eye fatigue from the tests.
