PURPOSE: To develop deep learning (DL) models estimating the central visual field (VF) from optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) vessel density (VD) measurements. DESIGN: Development and validation of a deep learning model. METHODS: A total of 1051 10-2 VF OCTA pairs from healthy, glaucoma suspects, and glaucoma eyes were included. DL models were trained on en face macula VD images from OCTA to estimate 10-2 mean deviation (MD), pattern standard deviation (PSD), 68 total deviation (TD) and pattern deviation (PD) values and compared with a linear regression (LR) model with the same input. Accuracy of the models was evaluated by calculating the average mean absolute error (MAE) and the R (squared Pearson correlation coefficients) of the estimated and actual VF values. RESULTS: DL models predicting 10-2 MD achieved R of 0.85 (95% confidence interval [CI], 74-0.92) for 10-2 MD and MAEs of 1.76 dB (95% CI, 1.39-2.17 dB) for MD. This was significantly better than mean linear estimates for 10-2 MD. The DL model outperformed the LR model for the estimation of pointwise TD values with an average MAE of 2.48 dB (95% CI, 1.99-3.02) and R of 0.69 (95% CI, 0.57-0.76) over all test points. The DL model outperformed the LR model for the estimation of all sectors. CONCLUSIONS: DL models enable the estimation of VF loss from OCTA images with high accuracy. Applying DL to the OCTA images may enhance clinical decision making. It also may improve individualized patient care and risk stratification of patients who are at risk for central VF damage.
