Purpose: To compare retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) profile in subjects with myopia and emmetropia using GDx variable corneal compensator (VCC) Methods: Besides ophthalmologic standard examination (refraction, visual acuity and slit-lamp examination, applanation tonometry, and funduscopy), perimetry and scanning laser polarimetry (SLP) were performed. 171 healthy age-matched subjects with low ...

Aim:  To evaluate the possible effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection on retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell complex (GC-IPL) thicknesses. Method: Patients who had been infected by hospitalized because severe pneumonia were found out from database COVID-19 pandemic hospital formed patient group. The control group was composed non-COVID-19 age-matched subjects. mean fragmented RNFL GC-I...

PURPOSE To use optical coherence tomography (OCT) to test the hypothesis that optic nerve head (ONH) "cupping" in the monkey optic nerve transection (ONT) model does not include posterior laminar deformation. METHODS Five monkeys (aged 5.5-7.8 years) underwent ONH and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) OCT imaging five times at baseline and biweekly following unilateral ONT until euthanization ...

Purpose: To evaluate the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and central corneal thickness (CCT) in patients with exfoliation syndrome (XFS) Methods: In this comparative case series we measured RNFL thickness and CCT in 30 patients with XFS and in 30 age and sex matched healthy subjects who met the inclusion criteria. Results: Average RNFL in XFS group were significantly thinner than controls (94....

The aim of this study was to evaluate the predictive role of preoperative retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness for postoperative visual recovery in patients with chiasmal compression through performing a meta-analysis. PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library and China National Knowledge Infrastructure were searched for relevant studies. The study and patient characteristics were extracted. Poole...

PURPOSE To determine the correlations between structural parameters of the optic nerve head and the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) obtained by using a Heidelberg Retina Tomograph II (HRT II), optic coherence tomography (OCT), and laser polarimetry (GDX-VCC) and the perimetric indices of standard automated perimetry (SAP) in normal, ocular hypertensive and glaucomatous subjects. METHODS Thre...

Abstract Objectives We aimed on evaluating the effect of liver dysfunction retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), GCL++ (ganglion cell + RNFL inner plexiform layer), central macular thickness (CMT) and subfoveal choroidal (CT) measurements. Methods Fifty two patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC group) 61 healthy individuals (control were included in our study. Blood alanine aminotransferase ...

PURPOSE To investigate whether or not thicker retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) in retinitis pigmentosa (RP) patients relates to functional abnormalities of the photoreceptors. METHODS Optical coherence tomography-based RNFL thickness was measured by Stratus-3™ (Zeiss, Basel, Switzerland) optical coherence tomography and electroretinogram (ERG) recordings made using the RETI-port(®) system (Ro...

PURPOSE To measure retinal nervous fiber layer (RNFL) thickness using OCT3 (Carl-Zeiss) in patients with diffuse unilateral subacute neuroretinitis (DUSN) with or without live worm and correlate it with visual acuity. METHODS RNFL thickness, using RNFL thickness 3.4 program and best corrected visual acuity were measured in patients with DUSN between January 2005 and December 2006. RESULTS T...

PURPOSE To evaluate the effects of signal strength, age, sex, optic disc size, and axial length on the normal optic nerve head (ONH), retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), and macular measurements with spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). METHODS In an observational, cross-sectional study, 119 eyes of 60 normal subjects of Indian origin underwent ONH, RNFL, and macular imaging w...
