Abstract:
:Two short visual field tests were performed on 106 subjects approximately 5 minutes apart with or without a hand vibration stimulus between the field tests. There were 31 eyes in the control group (10 without glaucoma, eight glaucoma suspects, 10 with primary open-angle glaucoma, and three with secondary open-angle glaucoma). There were 75 eyes in the hand vibration group (16 without glaucoma, 20 glaucoma suspects, 25 with primary open-angle glaucoma, eight with secondary open-angle glaucoma, three with normal-tension glaucoma, and three with other forms of glaucoma). Average visual field sensitivities were significantly reduced in the arcuate zones after a hand vibration stimulus (-0.42 dB; SD, 1.26 dB) when compared with sensitivities in the arcuate zones in subjects without the hand vibration stimulus (+0.38 dB; SD, 1.53 dB; P = 0.01). Multivariate analysis demonstrated a significant reduction in this response in the arcuate zone associated with use of betaxolol (P = 0.021) and timolol (P = 0.047). Betaxolol was associated with significantly smaller reductions in visual field sensitivities in the paracentral zone (P = 0.01). Reductions in visual field sensitivities that may be related to ocular vasospasm occurred after a hand vibration stimulus. This response may be able to be modified pharmacologically with topical beta-blockers, particularly betaxolol.
