Quantification of Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness in Normal and Glaucomatous Eyes Using Optical Coherence Tomography

摘要: Purpose: Quantitative assessment of nerve fiber layer (NFL) thickness in normal and glaucomatous eyes, correlation with conventional measurements the optic structure function. Methods: We studied 59 eyes 33 subjects by ophthalmologic physical examination, Humphrey 24-2 visual fields, stereoscopic head photography, optical coherence tomography. Results: Nerve as measured tomography demonstrated a high degree functional status nerve, field examination ( P =.0001). Neither cupping nor neuroretinal rim area were strongly associated loss was NFL =.17 =.21,respectively). Cupping correlated only when cup small (cup-to-diameter ratio, 0.1 to 0.3) or large 0.8 1.0) =.006); there no between otherwise. layer, especially inferior quadrant, significantly thinner than =.04). Finally, we found decrease aging, even controlling for factors diagnosis glaucoma =.03). Conclusions: can be using These provide good structural known parameters.
