A new method for rapid mapping of the retinal thickness at the posterior pole.
PURPOSE An objective, quantitative, and sensitive method to map retinal thickness is needed to diagnose more effectively the conditions causing alterations in thickness, such as macular edema and neuroretinal atrophy. METHODS An instrument, the retinal thickness analyzer, was developed into a rapid scanning instrument, capable of covering macular areas of 2 x 2 mm in 200 or 400 msec and gener...
متن کاملRetinal detachment at the posterior pole.
Case Reports Case 1, a male, aged 52, had had a right macular haemorrhage about 20 years previously, and for a period of 4 months had noticed deterioration of the visual acuity of the left eye. The right eye showed a posterior staphyloma and advanced macular degeneration typical of myopia; the left eye had a central retinal detachment occupying the area of a posterior staphyloma (Fig. 1). The v...
متن کاملRetinal oximetry in primary open-angle glaucoma.
PURPOSE. To determine whether retinal vessel oxygen saturation is affected in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) patients. METHODS. Retinal oxygen saturation in patients with POAG was measured in retinal vessels with a spectrophotometric retinal oximeter in darkness, and visual fields were obtained. Oxygen tension (Po(2)) was calculated from oxygen saturation values. Statistical analysis was pe...
متن کاملReduced Cortical Thickness in Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma and Its Relationship to the Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness
OBJECTIVES To examine possible changes in cortical thickness and their relationship to retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty-six patients with POAG and 40 matched healthy controls were enrolled in this study. All subjects underwent a comprehensive ophthalmologic examination and a high resolution structural ...
متن کاملPhotostress recovery in chronic open angle glaucoma.
Photostress recovery time was measured in 30 eyes from 15 patients with chronic open angle glaucoma, and 30 eyes from 15 individuals of a similar age group with no ophthalmological disorder. The average recovery time in patients with glaucoma was 70.47 (SD 35.39) seconds. The average recovery time in the control population was 41.97 (SD 17.34) seconds. This difference was statistically signific...
