Abstract

An evaluation was carried out comparing Oculokinetic Perimetry (O. K. P.) with Automatic Perimetry of Thresholds (Hipocampus Perimeter) for ocular hypertension and glaucoma studying 145 eyes. The O.K.P. shows a sensitivity between 35.65 and 38.54%, a specificity of 76.67–79.59%, a + predictive value of 78.72–85.42%, and a — predictive value of 23.71–39.80%.
