The characteristics of static visual fields in children with psychogenic visual disturbances.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:It is well-known that patients with psychogenic visual disturbances (PVD) exhibit characteristic kinetic visual fields. Even when the kinetic fields are normalized, the static fields of PVD children frequently remain abnormal. To verify this finding, we performed static perimetry on those children whose kinetic fields were initially normal or which normalized during the follow-up period, and compared the results with those of children with psychosomatic disorders (PSD) and normal children. METHODS:We examined 9 PVD children (17 eyes), 16 PSD children (32 eyes), and 16 normal children (16 eyes). Program 30-2 or 24-2 of the Humphrey Field Analyzer was used in the examinations on all subjects. RESULTS:The average mean deviation (MD) of the PVD group was significantly lower than that of the other groups (P <. 01). False negative errors and short-term fluctuations were significantly higher in the PVD group than in the other groups (P <. 05). CONCLUSION:Although PVD and PSD children possess a similar underlying psychological dysfunction, their performances in visual field testing proved to be quite different. In the PVD group, even when kinetic fields were normal, functional visual field loss in the static fields was common and had characteristic response properties.
