ABSTRACT Optical coherence tomography is often used for detection of glaucoma as well as to monitor progression. This paper reviews the most common types of artifacts on the optical coherence tomography report that may be confused with glaucomatous damage. We mainly focus on anatomy-related artifacts in ...
ABSTRACT Purpose: To compare the use of visual field and/or optical coherence tomography (OCT) combined with color retinography by non-glaucoma specialists for differentiating glaucoma from physiological cupping. Methods: Eighty patients with glaucoma or physiological cupping (40 of each) were randomiz...
El glaucoma congénito primario constituye la forma más común de glaucoma infantil, el cual exige un diagnóstico precoz y un tratamiento quirúrgico relativamente urgente, ya que puede ocasionar graves secuelas morfológicas y funcionales. Se presenta la realización, por primera ocasión, de la trab...
Characterization of glaucoma detection indicators with OCT Spectralis equipment and Humphrey II campimeter in patients with high myopia and high myopia glaucomatous at the Hospital Clínico Universidad de Chile
Purpose: Characterize and describe glaucoma index parameters of the results of visual exams, Optical Coherence Tomography and Visual Field, in high myopic subjects with and without the pathology. Method: Cross sectional and observational study of 39 eyes, 15 high myopic with glaucoma y 24 high myopic...
Abstract We report a case of a middle-aged woman who developed acute, bilateral, symmetrical, slightly transilluminating depigmentation of the iris and pigment discharge into the anterior chamber following the use of oral moxifloxacin for bacterial sinusitis. She had been misdiagnosed as having autoimmun...
ABSTRACT Purpose: To compare the linear measurements of the optic disk cup obtained using RTVue optical coherence tomography (OCT) with those obtained using digital retinography. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study performed with digital retinography and RTVue OCT images from patients with glauc...
