Optical coherence tomography allowed for differentiation between ONHD and ODE, yielding similar results with TD-OCT and SD-OCT. The new quantitative parameters of papillary elevation and RNFL measurements showed greater sensitivity and specificity than the qualitative criteria.
ONHD caused anatomical and functional damage of the RNFL, with a clear association between the alteration in ONHD and visual field defects in visible drusen cases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
