hemianopsia and glaucoma after a discussion of the bibliographic references to the few observations on the simultaneous occurrence of hemianopsias and glaucoma the author states on the basis of his experiences the following points homonymous hemianopsias occasionally take place in glaucoma, although no direct relation can be established between the former and the glaucoma.
a homonymous hemianopsia has to be taken into consideration also in the event of a sudden impairment of the visual field in a glaucomatous patient or when the hemianopic defect supervenes in addition to the visual field defect due to glaucoma.
whether the binasal hemianopsia is the result of the gradual development of a glaucomatous visual field with nasal defects or whether it constitutes an independent symptom to a certain extent, cannot always be clarified in the individual case.
