Evaluation of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer and Macular Thickness in Amblyopia
Purpose: To investigate the differences in macular and nevre fiber layer thicknesses between amblyopic and fellow eyes. Method: One hundred and twenty two eyes of 61 patients were enrolled for this study. All patients underwent complete ocular examination, cover test, prism test and also RNFL, macular thickness measurements (CMT; central macular thickness, TMT; total macular thickness) were obt...

PURPOSE To investigate, using optical coherence tomography (OCT), whether retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) is affected in amblyopic eyes. METHODS Using OCT (Stratus OCT™ [Carl Zeiss, Dublin, CA]), the RNFLT was measured in 26 patients with persistent unilateral amblyopia and in 25 patients with recovered unilateral amblyopia. The RNFLT was compared between the affected and fellow e...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Amblyopia is characterized by histopathological changes in the visual cortex and lateral geniculate nucleus. In the retina, however, no abnormalities have yet been reported. The purpose of this study was to compare the nerve fiber layer (NFL) thickness in the amblyopic eye with that in the sound eye of patients with strabismic amblyopia. As a practical implication, we inv...
متن کاملRetinal nerve fiber layer thickness in unilateral amblyopia.
PURPOSE To test the hypothesis that eyes with amblyopia may have thicker retina, retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) was investigated in patients with unilateral amblyopia. METHODS Thirty-eight patients with unilateral amblyopia were studied. Among them, 20 patients had amblyopia with strabismus and 18 had refractive amblyopia without strabismus. Nineteen of 38 had anisometropia of 2....
متن کاملMacular and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness in unilateral anisometropic or strabismic amblyopia.
PURPOSE To compare the macular and nerve fiber layer thicknesses as measured by optical coherence tomography (OCT) in amblyopic and fellow eyes. METHODS Fifty patients with monocular strabismic (n = 25) or anisometropic (n = 25) amblyopia (best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) ranging from 20/40 to 20/400) were included in a prospective cross-sectional descriptive study. A refractive error more...
