Optical coherence tomography angiography measured capillary density in the normal and glaucoma eyes
摘要： Purpose: To compare the diagnostic ability of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) derived radial peripapillary capillary (RPC) measured capillary density (CD) and inside the optic nerve head (ONH) CD measurements to differentiate between the normal and primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) eyes. Methods: AngioVue disc OCT-A images were obtained and assessed in 83 eyes of POAG patients and 74 age matched healthy eyes. RPC CD was quantitatively measured in the peripapillary area within 3.45 mm circle diameter around the ONH and inside the ONH in 8 equally divided sectors, using Bar – Selective Combination of Shifted Filter Responses method after the suppressing large vessels. Area under receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) curve was used to assess the diagnostic accuracy of the two scanning regions of CD to differentiate between the normal and POAG eyes. Results: The mean peripapillary RPC density (0.12 ± 0.03) and mean ONH CD (0.09 ± 0.03) were significantly lower in POAG eyes when compared to the normal eyes (RPC CD: 0.17 ± 0.05, p < 0.0001 and ONH CD 0.11 ± 0.02, p = 0.01 respectively). The POAG patients showed 29% reduction in the RPC CD and 19% reduction in the ONH CD when compared to the normal eyes. The AUROC for discriminating between healthy and glaucomatous eyes was 0.784 for mean RPC CD and 0.743 for the mean ONH CD. Conclusions: Diagnostic ability of OCT-A derived peripapillary CD and ONH CD was moderate for differentiating between the normal and glaucomatous eyes. Diagnostic ability of even the best peripapillary average and inferotemporal sector for RPC CD and average and superonasal sector for the ONH CD was moderate.

The relationship between optic nerve head deformation and visual field defects in myopic eyes with primary open-angle glaucoma
摘要： Purpose: To investigate the relationship between the morphologic features of myopic optic nerve head (ONH) and visual field (VF) defects in myopic subjects with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) by intraindividual comparison. Methods: Myopic POAG subjects with unilateral glaucomatous VF defect were recruited. The morphologic features of myopic ONH, including optic disc tilt, optic disc rotation, and β-zone parapapillary atrophy (PPA) were measured from color fundus photographs. The comparisons were performed between the eyes with VF defects and the contralateral eyes without VF defects. Logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the relationship between various ocular parameters and the presence of VF defects. Results: We retrospectively included 100 eyes of 50 myopic POAG subjects. (Mean age: 50.1 ± 10.0 years). The tilt ratio was similar between the paired eyes. The degree of optic disc rotation (12.96 ± 7.21?) in eyes with VF defects were statistically greater than the contralateral eyes (6.86 ± 4.30?; P < 0.001) without VF defect. The β-zone PPA-to-disc area ratio was significantly greater in eyes with VF defects than the contralateral eyes (P = 0.024) without VF defect. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, the greater degree of optic disc rotation was significantly associated with the presence of VF defects (P < 0.001). However, tilt ratio, β-zone PPA-to-disc area ratio, refractive error, and axial length were not associated with the presence of VF defects. Conclusions: Among the morphologic features of myopic ONH, only the greater degree of the optic disc rotation was associated with the presence of VF defects in myopic subjects with POAG.
