Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of the study was to create a linear discriminant function (LDF) formula by using the new Glaucoma Probability Score (GPS) global and sectorial optic nerve head parameters measured by Heidelberg Retinal Tomograph 3 to improve the GPS diagnostic capacity to discriminate between healthy and glaucomatous eyes. Patients and Methods: This is a multicenter cross-sectional study. To calculate the LDF formula, 137 normal individuals and 96 glaucomatous patients were selected. Another independent sample of 60 healthy and 69 glaucomatous eyes was used to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the LDF formulas. All patients underwent a full eye examination, standard achromatic perimetry by using Humphrey Field Analyzer, and imaging with Heidelberg Retinal Tomograph 3. Glaucoma was defined on the basis of SITA-24-2 visual field loss (pattern standard deviation P
