Most patients with end-stage age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) depend on their eccentric viewing for distance and near vision. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the subjective effects of eccentric viewing spectacles (EVS) in order to achieve the use of perimacular regions in primary gaze position.
We fitted EVS on patients with a central scotoma secondary to end-stage ARMD. After determining the preferred retinal locus, high power prism glasses were adjusted to this area. After a follow-up period of at least 3 months, patients filled in a questionnaire concerning their perception of positive or negative effects.
Twenty-three of 38 patients considered the fitted EVS to be an improvement.
EVS may be helpful for the rehabilitation of patients with a central scotoma resulting from ARMD.
大多数晚期年龄相关性黄斑变性(ARMD)患者依靠旁中心注视来获得远视力和近视力。本研究的目的是评估旁中心注视眼镜(EVS)的主观效果,以便在第一眼位使用黄斑周围区域。
我们为晚期ARMD继发中心暗点的患者佩戴EVS。确定首选视网膜位置后,将高倍棱镜眼镜调整到该区域。经过至少3个月的随访期后,患者填写一份关于他们对正负效果感知的问卷。
38例患者中有23例认为佩戴的EVS有改善。
EVS可能有助于ARMD所致中心暗点患者的康复。
