Abstract
PRECIS: Glaucoma patients displayed alterations in their quality of life (QoL) and their ability to perform activities of daily living. The visual field (VF) of the worse eye might serve as a good marker for QoL evaluation. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to explore the correlations between VF defects, performance in simulated activities of daily living, and subjective evaluation of QoL in glaucoma patients. METHODS: Thirty-two patients with glaucoma and 10 age-matched control subjects were included. All participants answered a QoL questionnaire and underwent an assessment of visual function including monocular and binocular best-corrected visual acuity, binocular contrast sensitivity test (LogCS), and monocular and binocular VF. All subjects also carried out a series of simulated activities of daily living in a controlled environment. RESULTS: Glaucoma patients had lower QoL scores compared with controls for the composite score, near and distance activities, social functioning, mental health, role difficulties, dependency, and color vision. With regard to performance in the simulated mobility task, the number of mobility incidents was higher for glaucoma patients than for control subjects. For the reaching and grasping tasks, the overall movement duration for small objects was significantly longer in glaucoma patients compared with controls. The VF mean deviation of the worse eye was correlated with most of the QoL subscores. Mobility incidents as well as the reaching and grasping task parameters were not significantly correlated with QoL scores. CONCLUSIONS: Glaucoma patients showed an alteration of performance in simulated daily living activities, associated with a decreased QoL. There was no clear correlation between alterations in QoL and ability to perform activities of daily living. The QoL related to vision was mostly correlated to the visual function of the worse eye.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
