PURPOSE: To evaluate the agreement between Compass New Grid (NG) and 10-2 test protocols for detecting early glaucomatous defects in the central 10 degrees of the visual field (CVFD). DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 123 eyes of 14 healthy individuals, 17 glaucoma suspects, and 32 glaucoma patients were enrolled. METHODS: Subjects performed NG and 10-2 Compass automated perimetry testing within 1 week. For both test protocols, total deviation (TD) and pattern deviation (PD) plot CVFDs were defined by 3 contiguous points with probabilities of <5%, <2%, <2% or <5%, <1%, <1%. Cohen's Kappa statistic was used to assess agreement between NG and 10-2 for identifying CVFDs. The Spectralis GMPE Hood Glaucoma Report (investigational software version) macula deviation analysis obtained within 1 year was used for calculating sensitivities and specificities of test protocols. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Protocols' agreement, sensitivity, and specificity. RESULTS: Fair to moderate agreement was observed between NG and 10-2 protocols for detecting presence of superior CVFDs on TD (k = 0.57) and PD (k = 0.26) plots and for detecting inferior CVFDs on TD (0.49) and PD (0.27) plots. With the use of OCT macula deviation maps, specificity for detecting CVFD was consistently higher with NG than 10-2 tests for TD plots of the superior hemifield (0.82 and 0.65), inferior hemifield (0.92 and 0.84), and PD plots of the superior hemifield (0.81 and 0.36) and inferior hemifield (0.86 and 0.52). Sensitivity of NG was consistently lower than TD plots of the superior hemifield (0.48 and 0.72), inferior hemifield (0.28 and 0.46), and PD plots of the superior hemifield (0.48 and 0.78) and inferior hemifield (0.20 and 0.52). By using pattern standard deviation (PSD) criterion, the mean PSD values for 10-2 and NG VF tests were 1.61 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.26-1.96) and 1.81 (95% CI, 1.45-2.17) (P < 0.001), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Although the Compass NG detected fewer CVFDs than the 10-2 test protocol, it did detect CVFDs that were not observed in the Compass 24-2 test in patients with early glaucoma. Therefore, NG may be particularly useful in clinical situations when higher specificity is desired or PSD criterion is used.
