Ability and Reproducibility of Fourier-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography to Detect Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Atrophy in Parkinson's Disease
Purpose To evaluate and compare the ability of 3 protocols of Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) to detect retinal thinning and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) atrophy in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) compared with healthy subjects. To test the intrasession reproducibility of RNFL thickness measurements in patients with PD and healthy subjects using the Cirrus (Carl Zeiss Meditec Inc., Dublin, CA) and Spectralis (Heidelberg Engineering, Inc., Heidelberg, Germany) OCT devices. Design Observational, cross-sectional study. Participants Patients with PD (n = 75) and age-matched healthy subjects (n = 75) were enrolled. Methods All subjects underwent three 360-degree circular scans centered on ...
