RetiNerveNet: using recursive deep learning to estimate pointwise 24-2 visual field data based on retinal structure

Abstract Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness in the world, affecting over 70 million people. The cumbersome Standard Automated Perimetry (SAP) test is most frequently used to detect visual loss due to glaucoma. Due to the SAP test’s innate difficulty and its high test-retest vari...
