Correlation between structure/function and optic disc microcirculation in myopic glaucoma, measured with laser speckle flowgraphy
BACKGROUND It is difficult to identify glaucoma in myopic eyes because the configuration of the optic disc varies; yet it is important clinically. Here, we used laser speckle flowgraphy (LSFG) to measure mean blur rate (MBR), representing optic disc microcirculation, and assessed its ability to identify glaucoma in eyes with myopic optic discs. METHODS 129 eyes (normal disc: 21 eyes; myopic d...
متن کاملRelationship of Ocular Microcirculation, Measured by Laser Speckle Flowgraphy, and Silent Brain Infarction in Primary Aldosteronism
PURPOSE Recent studies have shown that the risk of cerebro- and cardiovascular events (CVEs) is higher in patients with primary aldosteronism (PA) than in those with essential hypertension (EH), and that silent brain infarction (SBI) is a risk factor and predictor of CVEs. Here, we evaluated the relationship between findings from laser speckle flowgraphy (LSFG), a recently introduced non-invasi...
متن کاملAge- and Sex-Dependency of Laser Speckle Flowgraphy Measurements of Optic Nerve Vessel Microcirculation
PURPOSE To investigate the relationship between various characteristics of a normal population and laser speckle flowgraphy (LSFG) measurements of mean blur rate (MBR) in the optic nerve head (ONH). METHODS A total of 189 eyes of 189 normal subjects (93 male, 96 female, mean age 45 ± 14 years old, age range: 20-72) without any history of hypertension, hyperlipidemia or diabetes were enrolled....

متن کاملReproducibility of retinal circulation measurements obtained using laser speckle flowgraphy-NAVI in patients with glaucoma
BACKGROUND Laser speckle flowgraphy (LSFG) enables noninvasive quantification of the retinal circulation in glaucoma patients. In this study, we tested the intrasession reproducibility of LSFG-NAVI, a modified LSFG technique. METHODS Sixty-five eyes from 33 subjects (male (M):female (F) = 17:16) with a mean age of 49.4 ± 11.2 years were examined in this study. Two parameters indicating reprod...
