Depth-resolved variations in visibility of retinal nerve fibre bundles across the retina in enface OCT images of healthy eyes

Purpose: Recent developments in optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology enable direct enface visualisation of retinal nerve fibre bundle (RNFB) loss in glaucoma. However, the optimum depth at which to visualise RNFBs across the retina is unknown. We aimed to evaluate the range of depths and optimum depth at which RNFBs can be visualised across the retina in healthy eyes. Methods: The central ± 25° retina of 10 healthy eyes from 10 people aged 57-75 years (median 68.5 years) were imaged with spectral domain OCT. Slab images of maximum axial resolution (4 μm) containing depth-resolved attenuation coefficients were extracted from 0 ...
