Purpose: To estimate the prevalence of open-angle glaucoma (OAG) in a population-based sample of subjects 60 years of age or older in Thessaloniki, Greece.
Design: Cross-sectional population-based study.
Methods: Subjects randomly identified from municipality registers in Thessaloniki underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination.
Purpose: To identify the investigator effect in the analysis results of Heidelberg retinal flowmetry (HRF) images when pixel-by-pixel analysis is performed.
Methods: Thirty-two of 732 HRF images were randomly selected from a population-based study. Pixel-by-pixel analysis was performed by two trained masked graders in the following way: a square window of 40 x 40 pixels or two windows of 30 x 30 pixels or four windows of 20 x 20 pixels free from blood vessels at the peripapillary retina were identified.
Purpose: To estimate the age- and gender-specific prevalence of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in a population-based sample of subjects 60 years of age or older in Thessaloniki, Greece.
Design: Cross-sectional population-based study.
Methods: A total of 2554 subjects randomly identified from municipality registers in Thessaloniki underwent a complete ophthalmologic examination.
Purpose: To study the association of blood pressure (BP) status on the optic disk structure as measured with the Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT) in people without glaucoma.
Design: Cross-sectional population-based setting study.
Methods: Consecutive participants in the Thessaloniki Eye Study were included in this study.
Aim: To evaluate the interobserver variability and retest reproducibility of confocal scanning laser Doppler flowmeter in measuring capillary perfusion of the peripapillary retina.
Methods: Blood flow measurements were performed in one eye of 10 normal subjects by two investigators on two different days (visits). Five separate measurements of the peripapillary blood flow parameters were recorded by each observer at each visit.
