The Comparison of Foveal Sensitivity Between Diabetic and Non-diabetic Patients by Using Standard Automated Perimetry 10-2 Protocol: A Cross-Sectional Study.

Purpose The purpose of the study is to assess whether standard automated perimetry (SAP) was capable of detecting early neuroretinal changes by comparing foveal sensitivity in diabetic and non-diabetic subjects. Settings and design This is an observational and cross-sectional study that compared foveal sensitivity between a case group of 47 subjects with no or mild-to-moderate diabetic retinopathy (DR) without maculopathy and a control group of 43 healthy subjects. Materials and Methods After a thorough ocular examination, all patients were put through tests using a Humphrey visual field analyzer with the Swedish interactive threshold algorithm (SITA) standard system (10-2 software).
