Morphological differences of the neuroretinal rim between temporally tilted and non-tilted optic discs in healthy eyes.

This study aimed to compare morphological differences of the neuroretinal rim between the temporally tilted and non-tilted optic discs in healthy eyes. We prospectively enrolled participants aged 20-40 years with temporally tilted or non-tilted optic discs. The optic nerve head parameters were analyzed using spectral domain-optical coherence tomography.

Differences in optic nerve head structure between acute angle-closure glaucoma and open-angle glaucoma.

This study aimed to compare the optic nerve head (ONH) structure in acute angle-closure glaucoma (AACG) and open-angle glaucoma (OAG) to investigate the differences in glaucomatous damage. The AACG and OAG eyes were matched with regard to global retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT). AACG eyes were divided into two subgroups based on the presence of ONH swelling at the onset of AACG.

Comparison of retinal nerve fiber layer thickness and Bruch's membrane opening minimum rim width thinning rate in open-angle glaucoma.

This study aimed to compare the rate of thinning between retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) and Bruch's membrane opening minimum rim width (BMO-MRW) in open-angle glaucoma (OAG) according to glaucoma severity. We retrospectively reviewed subjects with a total of 111 eyes with OAG that had undergone optical coherence tomography more than four times during more than 3 years of follow-up. The subjects were divided into three groups based on the mean deviation (MD) of the baseline visual field test: high MD (MD > - 2 dB), medium MD (- 2 dB ≥ MD > - 6 dB), and low MD (- 6 dB ≥ MD > - 12 dB) groups.

Novel area-based optic nerve head parameter to distinguish glaucoma from non-glaucomatous retinal nerve fiber layer defect in branch retinal vein occlusion.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to assess the diagnostic ability of the new area-based parameter retinal nerve fiber layer to disc ratio (RDR) for discriminating between glaucoma and non-glaucomatous retinal nerve fiber layer defects (RNFLDs).

Methods: This retrospective cross-sectional study included 42 branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) eyes with RNFLD, 42 open-angle glaucoma (OAG) eyes, and 42 healthy control eyes that were matched with optic disc size. The RDR, peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (pRNFLT), Bruch's membrane opening-minimum rim width (BMO-MRW), and Bruch's membrane opening-minimum rim area (BMO-MRA) were analyzed.
