Research Abstract

In this study, we have demonstrated that 3-dimensional imaging of the retina using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography allows us to detect early glaucoma, particularly preperimetric glaucoma; the thinning of macular ganglion cell layer and retinal nerve fiber layer was revealed, and detection of narrow nerve fiber layer was improved by reducing speckle-noise.
