“…When testing both methods with 59 locations (i.e., all locations), the mean number of stimuli presentations per location by SORS was significantly lower than DS ( Since glaucoma can manifest itself as isolated defects, i.e., a small region can worsen more sharply than its neighboring locations, it is crucial for a perimetry strategy to identify such local defect regions as accurately as possible. Therefore, to evaluate SORS performance at measuring isolated defects, Figure 13 presents absolute errors with respect to a gradient measure l = max 25,29 where N l is the set of neighboring locations (within a radius of 9°). l corresponds to the highest difference between the ST at location l. A high l indicates the location l's ST is significantly different to its neighbor(s) (i.e., less homogeneous region) and is more challenging to predict.…”
