“…Avarage and segmental analysis of RNFL and macular thickness, and optic nevre head analysis are found to provide clinically important information in diagnosis and follow-up of glaucoma, an another neurodegenerative disease. Studies assessing the diagnostic ability of OCT in distinguishing early glaucomatous eyes from normal reveal significant decrease in RNFL especially in the inferior, and superior quadrants, at the peaks of the double hump pattern [35][36][37]. Inzelberg and associates recently reported significant reduction in the inferotemporal parapapillary RNFL [10].…”

“…The currently available OCT unit is third-generation technology (Stratus OCT), with an axial resolution of 10 µm. The Fast Optic Disc and the Fast RNFL protocol of StratusOCT have been explored to detect glaucomatous damage [5][6][7]. Recently, newer versions of imaging devices for ONH and RNFL have been introduced, with the expectation that higher resolution or better theoretical performance of the devices would lead to better clinical performance and a higher detection rate of early glaucoma.…”

Objective-To evaluate the current published literature on the use of optic nerve head (ONH) and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) measurement devices in diagnosing open-angle glaucoma and detecting progression. Results-There were no studies classified as having the highest level of evidence (level I). The ONH and RNFL imaging instruments reviewed in this assessment were determined to be highly effective in distinguishing eyes with glaucomatous visual field (VF) loss from normal eyes without VF loss, based on level II evidence. In addition, some studies demonstrated that parameters from ONH or RNFL imaging predicted the development of VF defects among glaucoma suspects. Studies on detecting glaucoma progression showed that although there was often agreement on progression between the structural and functional (VF) tests, a significant proportion of glaucoma patients progressed by either the structural or the functional test alone. MethodsConclusions-The ONH and RNFL imaging devices provide quantitative information for the clinician. Based on studies that have compared the various available technologies directly, there is no single imaging device that outperforms the others in distinguishing patients with glaucoma from controls. Ongoing advances in imaging and related software, as well as the impracticalities associated with obtaining and assessing optic nerve stereophotographs, have made imaging increasingly important in many practice settings. The information obtained from imaging devices is useful in clinical practice when analyzed in conjunction with other relevant parameters that define glaucoma diagnosis and progression.
