Purpose: To study the short-term variability of retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and optic disc measurements using Stratus OCT.
Method: Transversal comparative study with repeated measurements. For each eye, the Fast Optic Disc and Fast RNFL protocols were repeated twice in the same session. The resulted measurements were compared using correlation and variation coefficients.
Results: 62 eyes (34 patients) were included in the study. For every analyzed parameter there was a highly significant correlation between the first and the second measurement (p < 0.001). For the C/D ratio (vertical, horizontal and area) the correlation coefficients varied from 0.939 to 0.961 (coefficients of variation 6.43 to 8.75%). Concerning the RNFL parameters, the correlation coefficients took values between 0.818 (for the nasal quadrant) and 0.964 (for the Average Thickness). The variation coefficients were between 4.24 and 15.14%.
Conclusions: We have found an excellent reproducibility of C/D measurements (vertical, horizontal and area)--less studied in the OCT-related literature. From the RNFL parameters, the best reproducibility was found for the superior and inferior quadrant, and especially for the average thickness.

A 45-year-old healthy African-American man experienced 2 months of right-eye soreness followed by acute onset of right painful vision loss with binocular, oblique diplopia. Visual acuity was count fingers OD and 20/20 OS. He had a partial, right, pupil-involving cranial nerve III palsy with a right relative afferent pupillary defect and optic disc edema with tortuous vessels.

A juxtapapillary retinal capillary hemangioma (JRCH) is a rare vascular hamartoma located on the optic nerve head or adjacent region. While often associated with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease, JRCHs can also occur as an isolated condition, presenting unique therapeutic challenges and risks of visual impairment. We report a case of a 50-year-old Malay gentleman with diabetes mellitus who presented with a non-progressive superior visual field defect in his left eye for three months.

Precis: Current optical coherence tomography normative sample data may not represent diverse human optic nerve anatomy to accurately classify all individuals with true glaucomatous optic neuropathy.
Purpose: To compare optic nerve head (ONH) measurements between published values from an optical coherence tomography (OCT) normative database and a more diverse cohort of healthy individuals.
Patients And Methods: ONH parameters from healthy participants of the Michigan Screening and Intervention for Glaucoma and Eye Health through Telemedicine (MI-SIGHT) program and the Topcon Maestro-1 normative cohort were compared.

Purpose: The aim is to assess GPT-4V's (OpenAI) diagnostic accuracy and its capability to identify glaucoma-related features compared to expert evaluations.
Design: Evaluation of multimodal large language models for reviewing fundus images in glaucoma.
Subjects: A total of 300 fundus images from 3 public datasets (ACRIMA, ORIGA, and RIM-One v3) that included 139 glaucomatous and 161 nonglaucomatous cases were analyzed.
