The inheritance of peripapillary atrophy.
PURPOSE To estimate the relative importance of genes and environment in peripapillary atrophy type beta (beta-PPA) in a classic twin study. METHODS Female twin pairs (n = 506) aged 49 to 79 years were recruited from the St. Thomas' UK Adult Twin Registry. Peripapillary atrophy was identified from masked grading of stereoscopic optic disc photographs. Structural equation modeling was performed...
متن کاملPeripapillary atrophy in Stargardt disease.
OBJECTIVE To demonstrate that Stargardt disease (STGD) can present with peripapillary atrophy. METHODS Retrospective case series. The medical records of 150 consecutive patients (300 eyes) were reviewed retrospectively from a STGD database from January 1999 to May 2007 at Columbia University's Harkness Eye Institute. STGD patients demonstrating peripapillary atrophy were identified. RESULTS...
متن کاملAnalysis of peripapillary atrophy using spectral domain optical coherence tomography.
OBJECTIVE To study retinal morphologic changes around the optic disc in patients with peripapillary atrophy (PPA) with high-resolution spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD OCT). DESIGN Cross-sectional, retrospective analysis. PARTICIPANTS A total of 103 eyes of 73 patients with PPA and 21 eyes of 12 normal patients seen at the New England Eye Center, Tufts Medical Center, betwee...
متن کاملCharacterization of Peripapillary Atrophy Using Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography
PURPOSE To characterize the features of peripapillary atrophy (PPA), as imaged by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). METHODS SD-OCT imaging of the optic disc was performed on healthy eyes, eyes suspected of having glaucoma, and eyes diagnosed with glaucoma. From the peripheral β-zone, the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), the junction of the inner and outer segments (IS/OS...
متن کاملHigh Myopic Peripapillary Atrophy; Spectral Domain Optical Coherence Tomography Features
Pathologic myopia is defined as myopic refractive error greater than ‐6.00 diopters (D).[1] Axial myopia progression results in stretching of ocular layers which may be imaged by optical coherence tomography (OCT). These findings consist of dehiscence of retinal layers, retinal cysts, intrachoroidal cavitation, macular holes, posterior retinal detachment and choroidal neovascular membranes.[2] ...
