Optical coherence tomography angiography in glaucoma : a
The advent of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) provides a new opportunity to visualize the retinal vasculature in a non-invasive and dye-free manner which may help identify vascular abnormalities in glaucoma. While a reduction in retinal and optic nerve head vessel densities and blood flow indexes measured by OCT-A has been demonstrated in patients with glaucoma in many studies,...
متن کاملThe Promise of Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography in Glaucoma.
Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) studies in primary open-angle glaucoma have consistently demonstrated reduced microcirculation in the superficial optic nerve, peripapillary retina, and the macula of glaucoma patients. These studies clearly demonstrate the superior resolution of OCTA compared with prior methods that were used to measure ocular blood flow (OBF) or its surrogates. ...
متن کاملOptical Coherence Tomography Angiography of the Peripapillary Retina in Glaucoma.
IMPORTANCE Vascular factors may have important roles in the pathophysiology of glaucoma. A practical method for the clinical evaluation of ocular perfusion is needed to improve glaucoma management. OBJECTIVE To detect peripapillary retinal perfusion in glaucomatous eyes compared with normal eyes using optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS Prospect...
متن کاملOptical Coherence Tomography Angiography
Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) is a noninvasive approach that can visualize blood vessels down to the capillary level. With the advent of high-speed OCT and efficient algorithms, practical OCTA of ocular circulation is now available to ophthalmologists. Clinical investigations that used OCTA have increased exponentially in the past few years. This review will cover the history ...
متن کاملOptical coherence tomography angiography of optic disc perfusion in glaucoma.
PURPOSE To compare optic disc perfusion between normal subjects and subjects with glaucoma using optical coherence tomography (OCT) angiography and to detect optic disc perfusion changes in glaucoma. DESIGN Observational, cross-sectional study. PARTICIPANTS Twenty-four normal subjects and 11 patients with glaucoma were included. METHODS One eye of each subject was scanned by a high-speed ...
