purpose : to determine the nerve fiber layer and macular thickness by optical coherence tomography (oct) in emmetropic, high-myopic and high-hyperopic eyes methods : one hundred five eyes of 55 randomly selected healthy subjects between 20 and 30 years old were included in this study. the eyes were categorized in three groups (high-myopic, emmetropic and high-hyperopic) according to their cyclo...

Assessment of the peripapillary nerve fiber layer and macular thickness can be determined in ophthalmology using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Decreased nerve fiber layer thickness and macular ganglion cell thickness in optic nerve ischemia have been correlated with visual field loss. OCT allows deep optic nerve head evaluation which helps understand pathophysiology of diseases.  Furtherm...

Objective-  To determine the possibility of three-dimensional ultrasonography (3DUS) and measurement of optical nerve sheet by this method. Design- Descriptive study. Animals- 10 mixed normal dogs (5males, 5 females), age 1-1.5 year, and weighting 15±5 kg Procedure- 3D ultrasounds of the eyes were evaluated and the normal optical nerves in 3DUS images were measured using Volouson 730 pro....

purpose: to measure peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (rnfl) thickness in normal human eyes by optical coherence tomography (oct). methods: eighty-one eyes of 45 normal participants were studied. each person underwent a complete ophthalmic examinations, including measurement of visual aquity and intraocular pressure and evaluation of the anterior segment, optic disc, and retinal nerve fib...

background: headache is one of the most disturbing symptoms with common neurological signs. variations in optic nerve perfusion quality or retinal microcirculation may end up in ganglion cell damage in patients with migraine. methods: sixty patients diagnosed with migraine and thirty normal individuals were evaluated in groups including migraine with aura, migraine without aura and controls. re...

purpose: to compare peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (rnfl) thickness among multiple sclerosis (ms) patients with or without a history of optic neuritis (on) and a healthy control group. methods: in this retrospective case-control study, 59 ms patients were recruited from a neurology clinic of imam hossein hospital. of which, 36 patients had at least one episode of on and 23 others had n...

purpose : to compare the ability of scanning laser polarimetry (gdx vcc), and optical coherence tomography (oct) to discriminate eyes with primary open angle glaucoma (poag) from normal eyes and to assess the relationship between their parameters methods : eighty-seven glaucomatous eyes of 87 patients and 25 normal eyes were enrolled. the mean age of patients and normal group were 54.96±18.34 a...

purpose: to describe the association between optic disc traction and non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (naion). methods: eighty three eyes of 83 patients with naion were evaluated by optical coherence tomography (oct) for detecting vitreous adhesion to the optic nerve head with separation from adjacent retina (partial posterior vitreous detachment). those who were negative for su...

purpose: to determine peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (rnfl) thickness by three-dimensional optical coherence tomography (3d-oct) in a normal iranian population and to evaluate the concordance of these measurements with those obtained by the second generation of optical coherence tomography (oct ii). methods: in a cross-sectional observational study, 96 normal iranian subjects 20-53 yea...

this paper presents a new three-dimensional curvelet transform based dictionary learning for automatic segmentation of intraretinalcysts, most relevant prognostic biomarker in neovascular age-related macular degeneration, from 3d spectral-domain optical coherencetomography (sd-oct) images. in particular, we focus on the spectralis sd-oct (heidelberg engineering, heidelberg, germany) system, and...
