Purpose: To compare retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness rates of change and their variability between two commercial optical coherence tomography (OCT) devices.
Design: Prospective cohort study.
Participants: Ninety-four glaucoma eyes (94 patients) with central damage or moderate to advanced glaucoma with ≥2 years of follow-up and ≥4 pairs of OCT scans.
Prcis: Patient satisfaction and perspectives on telemedicine for glaucoma are crucial for validating the efficacy of remote healthcare. This study underscores its acceptance by patients in a single academic practice.
Purpose: To evaluate patient satisfaction and preferences with telemedicine visits integrated into a glaucoma practice.
Purpose: The optic nerve (ON) is mechanically perturbed by eye movements that shift cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) within its surrounding dural sheath. This study compared changes in ON length and CSF volume within the intraorbital ON sheath caused by eye movements in healthy subjects and patients with optic neuropathies.
Methods: Twenty-one healthy controls were compared with 11 patients having primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) at normal intraocular pressure (IOP), and 11 with chronic non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NA-AION).
Purpose: To investigate the influence of baseline blood pressure (BP) on retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) rates of change (RoCs) in glaucoma patients with central damage or moderate to severe disease.
Design: Prospective cohort study.
Participants: One hundred ten eyes with ≥ 4 RNFL OCT scans and ≥ 2 years of follow-up.
