The aim of this literature study is to investigate the specific visual field defects for each glaucoma subtype and evaluate their pattern of progression. A systematic search was performed in accordance with the PRISMA guidelines in Medline (via PubMed), Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library on January 23, 2024. The literature search identified 3332 records after deduplication. Sixty-nine articles were included after screening and assessment for eligibility. Specific visual field patterns for primary open-angle glaucoma, normal-tension glaucoma, primary angle-closure glaucoma, and juvenile open-angle glaucoma were summed up. Since the search results on visual field progression only covered primary open-angle glaucoma and normal-tension glaucoma, the further analysis was confined to these glaucoma subtypes. This systematic review summarizes the literature concerning visual field patterns in glaucoma for the ophthalmologist.
