      Macular Imaging with Optical Coherence Tomography in Glaucoma

      With the advent of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), imaging of the posterior segment of the eye can be carried out rapidly at multiple anatomical locations, including the optic nerve head (ONH), circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (cp-RNFL), and macula. There is now ample evidence to support the role of SD-OCT imaging of the macula for detection of early glaucoma. Macular SD-OCT measurements demonstrate high reproducibility, and evidence on its utility for detection of glaucoma progression is accumulating. We present a comprehensive review of macular SD-OCT imaging emerging as an essential diagnostic tool in glaucoma.

      OCT-Detected Optic Nerve Head Neural Canal Direction, Obliqueness and Minimum Cross-Sectional Area in Healthy Eyes

      Purpose To assess anterior scleral canal opening (ASCO) offset relative to Bruch’s membrane opening (BMO) (ASCO/BMO offset) so as to determine neural canal direction, obliqueness, and minimum cross-sectional area (NCMCA) in 362 healthy eyes. Design Cross-sectional study Methods After OCT optic nerve head (ONH) and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) imaging, BMO and ASCO were manually segmented and planes, centroids, size and shape were calculated. Neural canal direction was defined by projecting the neural canal axis vector (connecting BMO and ASCO centroids) onto the BMO plane. Neural canal obliqueness was defined by the angle between the neural ...

      Longitudinal Macular Structure-Function Relationships in Glaucoma and Their Sources of Variability

      Purpose 1) Review central structure-function (SF) relationships in glaucoma; 2) compare contributions of within-session and between-session variability to total variability of macular optical coherence tomography (OCT) thickness measurements; and 3) test the hypothesis that longitudinal within-eye variability of central SF relationships is smaller than between-individual variability. Methods We reviewed the pertinent literature on central SF relationships in glaucoma. Thirty-eight eyes (20 normal or glaucoma subjects) had ×3 macular images per session over 3 sessions and superpixels thickness measurements for ganglion cell layer (GCL), ganglion cell/inner plexiform layer (GCIPL), ganglion cell complex (GCC) and full macular thickness (FMT) were exported ...

      Peripapillary Retinal Nerve Fiber Measurement with Spectral-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography in Age-Related Macular Degeneration

      Purpose: To evaluate the relationship between the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) measurements with Spectral-domain Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and Age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

      Influence of Correction of Ocular Magnification on Spectral-Domain OCT Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Measurement Variability and Performance

      Purpose: To analyze the influence of ocular magnification on the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness measurement and its performance as acquired with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Methods: SD-OCT measurements from 108 normal eyes (59 subjects) and 72 glaucoma eyes (58 patients) were exported and custom software was used to correct RNFL measurements for ocular magnification. RNFL prediction limits in normal subjects, structure-function relationships, and RNFL performance for detection of glaucoma were compared before and after correction for ocular magnification (Bennett's formula). Association of disc area with cross-sectional RNFL area was explored. Results: The median (interquartile range ...

      Coupled parametric model for estimation of visual field tests based on OCT macular thickness maps, and vice versa, in glaucoma care
      The current standard of care for glaucoma patients consists of functional assessment of vision via visual field (VF) testing, which is sensitive but subjective, time-consuming, and often unreliable. A new imaging technology, Fourier domain optical coherence tomography (OCT), is being introduced to assess the structural characteristics of the macula. This new complementary exam is efficient, objective, and reliable. A complex, but consistent, relationship exists between the structural information provided by macular OCT and the functional information gathered by VF maps. We propose a learning-based framework with the ability to estimate the VF map based on OCT macular thickness measurements as ...

    14. Characterization of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer in Nonglaucomatous Eyes With Tilted Discs

      Explore Archives of Ophthalmology Ophthalmology

      Clinical assessment of the optic disc and nerve fiber layer (NFL) is an important method to diagnose and monitor the progress of glaucomatous optic neuropathy but is often difficult in eyes with tilted discs.1-3 Clinically, there are 2 orientations of tilting of the optic disc: temporal and inferior1 (Figure 1). Optical coherence tomography (OCT) demonstrates an acceptable diagnostic ability for glaucoma by comparing an individual patient's NFL thickness profile with those in a normative database.4-6 The purpose of this study is to characterize the NFL of nonglaucomatous eyes with tilted discs using OCT.

      Purpose: To determine the pattern of agreement of retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) defects between fellow eyes of glaucoma patients measured with optical coherence tomography (OCT). Design: Observational, cross-sectional study.Methods: Seventy-seven glaucoma patients (154 eyes) underwent OCT (Stratus) imaging with the fast RNFL thickness protocol in both eyes. RNFL thickness at each location (12 clock-hour sectors and 4 quadrants) was measured.
