Table 1.

Classification of glaucomatous condition based on the narrowest rim-width or RDR using DDLS as recommended by Spaeth et al.15 and Henderer et al.16.

DDLS stage (Spaeth et al.7) DDLS stage (Spaeth et al.15 and Henderer et al.16) Rim-to-disc ratio (RDR) range Glaucomatous condition
0 (0a and 0b) 1 and 2 0.30 ≤ RDR ≤ 0.50 Not definitely damaged (Normal)
1 3 0.20 < RDR ≤ 0.29
2 4 0.10 < RDR ≤ 0.19
3 5 0.01 < RDR 0.10 Asymptomatic glaucoma damage (Moderate)
4 6 No rim < 45°
5 7 No rim 45°–90°
6 8 No rim 90°–180° Glaucomatous disease/disability (Severe)
7 (7a and 7b) 9 and 10 No rim < 180°

For comparison, the classification proposed by Spaeth et al.7 is also shown.
