In vivo measurements of macular and nerve fibre layer thickness in retinal arterial occlusion

Nature Publishing Group Jun 2 2006 Ophthalmology

Aim To investigate the structure–function relationship in patients with retinal arterial occlusion by measuring the macular and the peripapillary retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) thickness and the visual sensitivity. Methods This is an observational case series with three patients with central retinal arterial occlusion (CRAO) and two patients with branch retinal arterial occlusion (BRAO). The macular/peripapillary RNFL thickness and the visual field were measured with Stratus optical coherence tomography (OCT) and Humphrey visual field analyzer, respectively, at least 1 year after the diagnosis of CRAO or BRAO. Results The macular thickness, in particular the inner retinal layer, and ...
