Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the microstructure of the lamina cribrosa (LC) in nonhuman primates with glaucoma, focusing on how it differs in those with naturally occurring disease compared to controls.
- Researchers used advanced imaging (OCT scans) to analyze the optic nerve head and select specific eyes based on retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFL-T).
- Key findings show that glaucoma-affected eyes had thinner RNFL-T and smaller pore diameters in the LC, indicating potential structural changes associated with the disease.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the link between structural changes in the eye, measured using optical coherence tomography (OCT), and functional changes in visual fields (VFs), aiming to improve assessment methods.
- Researchers created a deep learning (DL) model using 3D OCT data, which significantly outperformed a traditional 2D model in estimating functional performance and handling measurement challenges known as floor effects.
- The improved 3D model offers a more accurate understanding of structure-function relationships, potentially aiding in quicker and more reliable patient evaluations and clinical decisions.
