The glaucoma program G1 is widely employed by Octopus users. In addition to a specific distribution of test locations, its main advantages are the quick comparison of results with normal values and an easy follow-up. The program, however, is relatively time consuming and, therefore, tiring for some patients. For this reason, the program was modified to 'G1X'. This program is interruptable at any time and provides information, including statistical analysis based on the available data. The test sequence is rearranged in accordance with the importance of the information. The available information, including the confidence limits, is continuously calculated and presented on the screen of the Octopus 1-2-3 during the test procedure. This provides the possibility of adapting the measurement to the patients and their state of health. The principal features as well as clinical applications are described.
青光眼程序G1被Octopus用户广泛使用。除了测试位置的特定分布外，其主要优点是能快速将结果与正常值进行比较，且易于随访。然而，该程序相对耗时，因此对一些患者来说比较累人。出于这个原因，该程序被修改为“G1X”。这个程序可以在任何时候中断，并提供信息，包括基于现有数据的统计分析。测试顺序根据信息的重要性重新排列。在测试过程中，包括置信区间在内的可用信息会持续计算并显示在Octopus 1-2-3的屏幕上。这为根据患者及其健康状况调整测量提供了可能性。文中描述了其主要特点以及临床应用。
