Glaucoma is a silent eye disease that can cause permanent and irreversible vision loss if not detected early. Increased eye pressure damages the optic nerve gradually, often without noticeable symptoms in the early stages.
In this video, an eye specialist explains how the Humphrey Visual Field (HVF) test helps detect glaucoma, measure the extent of vision loss, and monitor disease progression over time. The video covers how the test is performed, how reports are interpreted, and why regular HVF testing is essential for planning and adjusting glaucoma treatment.
