 Evaluation of different algorithms for discriminating between controls and glaucomatous eyes using the rarebit perimetry testing

Algorithms Sensitivity (%) Specificity (%) AROC (%) Abnormals in OH group (% of eyes)
(1) MHR of <80% 92.3 95.1 0.94 44.2
(2) >15 areas with a non-hit rate of >10% 87.2 97.6 0.92 51.2
(3) ⩾2 areas with a non-hit rate of >50% 84.6 95.1 0.90 44.2
(4) at least 1 area with a non-hit rate of ⩾70% 82.1 100 0.91 51.2
(5) positivity at 1 of the previous algorithms 97.4 92.7 0.95 65.1
(6) positivity at 1 type of pattern distribution 84.6 90.2 0.89 51.2

AROC, area under the receiver operating characteristics curve; OH, ocular hypertension; MHR, mean hit rate.
