Aims: To explore the point-wise correlations between 10-2 visual field (VF) metrics and macular vessel density, as measured by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), in patients with early open-angle glaucoma (OAG) and healthy controls. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study that retrospectively analyzed data from 54 participants (18 eraly OAG patients and 36 healthy controls) from the Zhongshan Ophthalmic Center. All participants underwent comprehensive ophthalmic examinations, 10-2 VF, and macular OCTA imaging. The correlation between capillary density (CD) in macular subregions and light sensitivity (LS) at corresponding VF test points was analyzed using Pearson's correlation coefficients. Results: The analysis revealed a significant reduction in CD within the inferior macular regions of glaucomatous eyes. Notably, there were strong point-wise correlations between CD and 10-2 VF, particularly in the inferior region of outer ring (peak r = 0.534, P < 0.001). Conclusion: The point-wise correlation between 10-2 VF and macular CDdemonstrates the potential for using CD to predict central VF damage in glaucoma, emphasizing theimportance of macular microcirculation in early disease screening.

近年来随着医疗领域数字化、信息化建设的加速推进，人工智能的应用越来越广泛，在眼科医学方面尤为突出。婴幼儿处于视觉系统发育的关键时期，此时发生的眼病往往会造成不可逆的视功能损伤，带来沉重的家庭和社会负担。然而，由于婴幼儿群体的特殊性以及小儿眼科医生的短缺，开展大规模小儿眼病筛查工作十分困难。最新研究表明：人工智能在先天性白内障、先天性青光眼、斜视、早产儿视网膜病变以及视功能评估等领域已经得到相关应用，在多种婴幼儿眼病的早期筛查、诊断分期、治疗建议等方面都有令人瞩目的表现，有效解决了许多临床难点与痛点。但目前婴幼儿眼科人工智能仍然不如成年人眼科发展充分，亟须进一步的探索和研发。

In recent years, with the acceleration of digitalization and informatization in medical field, artificial intelligence (AI) is more and more widely applied, especially in ophthalmology. Infants are in the critical period of visual development, during which eye diseases can lead to irreversible visual impairment and bring heavy burden to family and society. Due to the particularity of infants and the shortage of pediatric ophthalmologists, it is challenging to carry out large-scale screening for eye diseases of infants. According to the latest studies, AI has been studied and applied in the fields of congenital cataract, congenital glaucoma, strabismus, amblyopia, retinopathy of prematurity, and evaluation of visual function, and it has achieved remarkable performance in the early screening, diagnosis stage and treatment suggestions, solving many clinical difficulties and pain points effectively. However, AI for infantile ophthalmology is not as developed as for adult ophthalmology, so it needs further exploration and development.
