In this paper, psychophysical contrast sensitivity was assessed as a potential tool to detect early visual deficits due to primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Through a cross-sectional study, we evaluated the foveal and peripheral contrast sensitivity in patients with a high risk of developing POAG, the suspected POAG. We found that contrast sensitivity is reduced in […]
