Abstract :
Aim: Individuals with solitary focal ischemic glaucoma may be able to identify early illness in the opposite eye using microperimetry or optical coherent tomography.
Methods: Thirty-nine successive percent of adults having unilateral focal ischemic glaucoma and independent split-fixation were studied. Graphic field fault on simple product perimetry was chosen, having normal SAP in the other eye. Our current research was conducted at Mayo Hospital Lahore from March 2020 to February 2021. All patients had microperimetry of the central 12 degrees and OCT tomography of retinal nerve fiber layer in both eyes. Other eye OCT imaging revealed that the retinal nerve fiber layer had thinned and/or reduced sensitivity.
Results: As a result of microperimetry, thirty other eyes showed aberrant global thresholds, and 23 had aberrant OCT imaging tests. Among tests in the opposite eye, Kappa agreement was poor (p = 0.2549). Microperimetry revealed that fixation in other eyes was considerably poorer than in glaucoma-affected eyes (p 0.002). Microperimetry revealed reduced retinal sensitivity at fixation in the other affected eyes.
Conclusion: Most individuals with solitary ischemic focal glaucoma have reduced retinal fixation sensitivity, and OCT indicates pivotal depletion of retinal nerve fiber layer in the other eye. OCT imaging of the optic disc in this clinical situation must be correlated using microperimetry in the opposite eye.
