To predict the development of glaucomatous visual field (VF) defects using Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography (FD-OCT) measurements at baseline visit. Multi-center longitudinal observational study. Glaucoma suspects and pre-perimetric glaucoma participants in the Advanced Imaging for Glaucoma Study. The optic disc, the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (NFL), and macular ganglion cell complex (GCC) were imaged with FD-OCT VF was assessed every 6 months. Conversion to perimetric glaucoma was defined by VF pattern standard deviation (PSD) or glaucoma hemifield test (GHT) outside normal limits on 3 consecutive tests. Hazard ratios were calculated with the Cox proportional hazard model. Predictive accuracy was measured by the area under the receiver-operating-characteristic curve (AUC). Of 513 eyes (309 participants), 55 eyes (46 participants) experienced VF conversion during 41 ± 23 months of follow-up. Significant (p<0.05, Cox regression) FD-OCT risk factors included all GCC, NFL, and disc variables, except for horizontal cup-to-disc ratio. GCC focal loss volume (FLV) was the best single predictor of conversion (AUC=0.753, p<0.001 for test against AUC = 0.5). Those with borderline or abnormal GCC-FLV had a 4-fold increase in conversion risk after 6 years (Kaplan-Meier). Optimal prediction of conversion was obtained using the glaucoma composite conversion index (GCCI) based on a multivariate Cox regression model that included GCC-FLV, inferior NFL quadrant thickness, age, and VF PSD. GCCI significantly improved predictive accuracy (AUC=0.783) over any single variable (p=0.04). Reductions in NFL and GCC thickness can predict the development of glaucomatous VF loss in glaucoma suspects and pre-perimetric glaucoma patients.
