Disc damage likelihood scale.
G laucoma is a disease characterised by apoptotic ganglion cell death related, at least in part, to intraocular pressure. Any examination for glaucoma must therefore include some comment upon the health of these cells. Unfortunately, it is difficult to examine the ganglion cell layer ophthalmoscopically and so ophthalmologists typically rely on an analysis of a more visible ocular structure—the...
متن کاملThe disc damage likelihood scale: Diagnostic accuracy and correlations with cup-to-disc ratio, structural tests and standard automated perimetry
Our objective was to compare the diagnostic accuracies of and to determine the correlations between the disc damage likelihood scale (DDLS) and anatomical and functional tests used for glaucoma detection. A total of 54 healthy subjects (54 eyes) and 47 primary open-angle glaucoma patients (47 eyes) were included in this cross-sectional observational study. DDLS scores and cup-to-disc (C/D) rati...
متن کاملSignificance of the disc damage likelihood scale objectively measured by a non-mydriatic fundus camera in preperimetric glaucoma
PURPOSE To assess the correlation between the disc damage likelihood scale (DDLS) objectively measured by a non-mydriatic fundus camera, Heidelberg Retina Tomograph 3, and optic coherence tomography in preperimetric glaucoma. METHODS One-hundred-twenty-five patients with preperimetric primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (n=30) were included (mean age 58.9±15.9 ye...
متن کاملThe disc damage likelihood scale: reproducibility of a new method of estimating the amount of optic nerve damage caused by glaucoma.
PURPOSE The major objective of this study was to test the reproducibility of a new method of estimating the amount of optic disc damage in patients with glaucoma. METHODS The Disc Damage Likelihood Scale (DDLS) is based on the appearance of the neuroretinal rim of the optic disc corrected for disc diameter. The eight stages, extending from no damage to far advanced damage, are based on the wi...
متن کاملCorrelation between Optic Nerve Parameters Obtained Using 3D Nonmydriatic Retinal Camera and Optical Coherence Tomography: Interobserver Agreement on the Disc Damage Likelihood Scale
Purpose. To compare stereometric parameters obtained by three-dimensional (3D) optic disc photography and optical coherence tomography (OCT) and assess interobserver agreement on the disc damage likelihood scale (DDLS). Methods. This retrospective study included 190 eyes from 190 patients classified as normal, glaucoma suspect, or glaucomatous. Residents at different levels of training complete...
