Peripapillary Perfused Capillary Density in Acute Angle-Closure Glaucoma: An Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Study

Purpose: To compare peripapillary perfused capillary density (PCD) on optical coherence tomography angiography among resolved acute angle-closure (AAC), primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), and control eyes. Design: Prospective, cross-sectional, observational study. Methods: All patients with resolved AAC or POAG of varying severity and controls were enrolled. We obtained 4.5 × 4.5 mm2 optical coherence tomography angiography images of the optic nerve head. PCD was analyzed using customized software with major vessel removal. Continuous variables were assessed using the analysis of variance and Bonferroni correction test. A marginal model of generalized estimating equations was used to adjust for confounding factors and ...
