Retinal nerve fiber layer defect in a patient with healthy neuroretinal rim.
Ophthalmoscopic scrutiny of the nerve fiber layer was first advocated by Hoyt, over 30 years ago. In the following years, the importance of localized defects of the retinal nerve fiber layer (NFL) for the diagnosis of glaucoma has been demonstrated in many studies. The evaluation of the NFL, though relatively difficult and subjective, has become routine in the common ophthalmic examination. We ...

PURPOSE To describe longitudinal rates of change of neuroretinal parameters in patients with glaucoma and healthy controls, and to evaluate the influence of covariates. DESIGN Prospective longitudinal study. PARTICIPANTS Treated patients with glaucoma (n = 192) and healthy controls (n = 37).

PURPOSE To determine whether retinal nerve fiber layer defect (RNFLD) is associated with cerebral small vessel diseases (SVDs) and to identify risk factors for RNFLD. METHODS A total of 4421 Korean subjects who underwent health checkups including brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and fundus photography between January 2008 and October 2009 were included in this study. Co-morbid systemic ...

متن کاملRetinal nerve fiber layer loss in glaucoma patients with a relative afferent pupillary defect.
PURPOSE To assess the amount of structural loss (retinal nerve fiber layer [RNFL] thickness loss, macular thickness [MT] and volume [MV] measured by optical coherence tomography [OCT]) and functional loss (visual acuity [VA], visual field mean deviation [MD], brightness sensitivity, and red perception) necessary for a relative afferent pupillary defect (RAPD) to manifest in patients with glauco...
