Scanning laser polarimetry reveals status of RNFL integrity in eyes with optic nerve head swelling by OCT.
PURPOSE Optical coherence tomography (OCT) shows retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickening in optic nerve head (ONH) swelling, but does not provide information on acute axonal disruption. It was hypothesized that scanning laser polarimetry (SLP) compared with OCT might reveal the status of axon integrity and visual prognosis in acute RNFL swelling. METHODS Threshold perimetry, OCT, and SLP ...
متن کاملMeasurement of retinal nerve fiber layer thickness in eyes with optic disc swelling by using scanning laser polarimetry and optical coherence tomography
BACKGROUND The retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) in patients with optic disc swelling of different etiologies was compared using scanning laser polarimetry (SLP) and spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT). METHODS Forty-seven patients with optic disc swelling participated in the cross-sectional study. Both GDx SLP (enhanced corneal compensation) and Spectralis spectral-d...
متن کاملScanning Laser Topography and Scanning Laser Polarimetry: Comparing Both Imaging Methods at Same Distances from the Optic Nerve Head
PURPOSE To compare the performance of scanning laser topography (SLT) and scanning laser polarimetry (SLP) on the rim of the optic nerve head and its surrounding area and thereby to evaluate whether these imaging technologies are influenced by other factors beyond the thickness of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL). MATERIALS AND METHODOLOGY A total of 154 eyes from 5 different groups were ...
متن کاملBaseline, one and three month changes in the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer in acute optic neuritis: relation to baseline vision and MRI.
OBJECTIVE Retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) loss occurs with MS or after optic neuritis. Acute RNFL alterations at presentation and changes over time have not been well documented. We analyzed regional RNFL changes using 2 methods, ocular coherence tomography (OCT) and scanning laser polarimetry (SLP), to study initial edema and early RNFL loss. METHODS 40 subjects with unilateral acute optic ...
متن کاملRepeatability of optic nerve head parameters measured by spectral-domain OCT in healthy eyes.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To evaluate the repeatability of optic nerve head (ONH) measurements by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. PATIENTS AND METHODS Three scans were acquired in 32 healthy subjects during one session. Using Cirrus HD-OCT (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA), the cup-to-disc ratio (CDR), disc area, rim area, cup volume, and horizontal and vertical CDRs were investig...
