The Early Psychophysical Disturbances in Chronic Open-angle Glaucoma. A Study of Visual Functions with Asymmetric Disc Cupping
Overview

Fourteen patients with elevated intraocular pressures, normal visual fields, and asymmetry of disc cupping were examined using a number of psychophysical tests. The results suggest that color vision and visually evoked potentials show early disturbances, but a contraction of the visual field is variable.
