Minimize time. Maximize information.
NEW SITA Faster testing strategy
- Reduce testing time by up to 50% with SITA Faster 24-2 threshold testing.
- The NEW SITA Faster 24-2C test adds ten additional points for central visual field.
- The points selected cover the areas that are known to be susceptible to glaucomatous defects.
Threshold testing is faster than ever with SITA Faster 24-2
SITA Faster 24-2 improves clinical workflow and patient satisfaction with the fastest test time in HFA threshold testing. Approximately 50% faster than SITA Standard, SITA Faster 24-2 is also about 30% quicker than SITA Fast, yet offers the same reproducibility.


Obtain more information in the central visual field
New SITA Faster 24-2C adds ten test points to the 24-2 pattern, which were selected to examine areas along physiologically relevant nerve fiber bundles known to be susceptible to glaucomatous defects.
What do the experts think?
Doctors speak on Glaucoma Management, SITA Faster & the new 24-2C Testing Pattern
Dr. Anders Heijl, Lund University, Sweden
How has glaucoma management changed and the use of perimetry along with it?
How do you hope to change the use of perimetry with SITA Faster?
What is the difference between SITA Faster and SITA Fast?
Do you see SITA Faster being the test for everyone and why?
Can SITA strategies now be mixed in GPA?
What studies have been done to develop and validate SITA Faster?
...the accuracy of the precision of SITA Faster should be the same as with SITA Fast...we consider the data between SITA Fast and SITA Faster to be completely interchangeable.
Anders Heijl, MD, PhD
Dr. C. Gustavo De Moraes, Columbia University, New York
There is compelling evidence that even in early glaucoma cases, the macula may be affected, but you need to use an adequate test to make sure that damage is real.

How do you see the future of visual field testing with SITA Faster?
What studies have been done to develop and validate SITA Faster?
(With SITA Faster)... patients, technicians, and doctors will be willing to order visual field testing more often and more in accordance with the recommended practice patterns throughout the world.
Vincent Michael Patella, OD, FAAO
Dr. Danica Marelli, Houston College of Optometry, Texas
Now with the HFA3, we have SITA Faster. Anything we can do to make it faster for the patient, easier for the patient, we feel like we’re going to get better data.
Danica Marelli, OD
How has SITA Faster changed the way you manage patients with glaucoma?
What is unique about the HFA3 from ZEISS compared to older models of the Humphrey Field that most of us were trained using in optometry school?
Do you think that the new SITA Faster 24-2C testing strategy will be valuable for diagnosing and managing glaucoma?
Dr. Murray Fingeret, SUNY College of Optometry, New York
The idea of the 24-2C is that it takes all the points on the 24-2 and it adds ten points from the 10-2. So now you have 64 points—but the idea is those ten points right in that center 10-degrees are the ones thought to be the ones most commonly flagged if glaucoma develops.
Murray Fingeret, OD, FAAO
Dr. Richard Madonna, SUNY College of Optometry, New York
(The new HFA3 tests) are going to be incredibly important to us as we look at, #1, getting better visual field tests because they’re faster, and/or #2, gathering information about the central 10 degrees in the visual field.
Richard Madonna, OD, MA, FAAO

Informing your decision-making with GPA
Guided Progression Analysis (GPA™), an HFA software module, can add value to your practice.
GPA Adds Value to Your Practice
Guided Progression Analysis (GPA) provides an overview of the patient’s entire visual field history, streamlines workflow and can improve clinical confidence. GPA simplifies and standardizes analysis of changes in glaucomatous visual fields.
- Highlights any changes from baseline that represent larger than expected clinical variability
- Provides plain-language messages whenever changes show consistent and statistically significant loss
It helps to differentiate between the localized losses typical of glaucoma and overall depressions caused, for example, by progressive cataract.
Image Key
(Click the image to enlarge)
- Visual Field Index™ (VFI™) Trend is a regression analysis of the VFI values. It plots visual field loss against the patient's age, as well as rate of progression.
- Glaucoma Change Probability Map is designed to identify progression events in consecutive visits at individual test points.
- GPA Alert displays a plain language message about the likelihood of disease progression.

Enhancing workflow from patient testing to report review
New HFA Review software provides comprehensive analysis and improves digital workflow. Quickly access HFA reports in every exam lane and modify reports on-the-fly to include and exclude tests, reset baselines and follow up on tests.
Already own an HFA?
Your data is safe with us.
Guided Progression Analysis (GPA™), an HFA software module, can add value to your practice.
Data Synchronization automatically updates and integrates patient tests from any connected HFA3. HFA II-i contributes tests to HFA3, enabling you to use existing HFA II-i devices to supplement testing capacity.
