Abstract

Abstract:

Macular ganglion cells-inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) thickness detected by SD-OCT may be a better method than peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and macular ganglion cell complex (GCC) for earlier diagnosis of glaucomatous damage. GCIPL in superonasal sector is the thickest while GCIPL in inferior sector is the thinnest in Asian population. Age and the axial length are important impact factors of GCIPL thickness. GCIPL thickness has similar glaucoma distinguishing performance with RNFL thickness. Mutual integration of visual field testing, GCIPL thickness, RNFL thickness and optic disc parameters is the key to enable early detection of glaucoma. (Ophthalmol CHN, 2016, 25: 1-5)
