The Association Between Regional Macula Vessel Density and Central Visual Field Damage in Advanced Glaucoma Eyes.

Ghahari Elham, Bowd Christopher, Zangwill Linda M, Proudfoot James A, Penteado Rafaella C, Kyung Haksu et al.

J GlaucomaJun 20227 citationsObservational Study

This study found that macular vessel density and ganglion cell complex thickness are both significantly linked to central vision loss in advanced glaucoma, suggesting they are complementary tools for monitoring disease.

4.

Impact of Pupil Dilation on Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Retinal Microvasculature in Healthy Eyes.

Villatoro George, Bowd Christopher, Proudfoot James A, Manalastas Patricia I C, Nguyen Khoa D, Hou Huiyuan et al.

J GlaucomaNov 202013 citationsObservational Study

Pupil dilation with phenylephrine/tropicamide caused small, statistically significant reductions in healthy eyes' OCTA circumpapillary capillary density. While likely not clinically significant, clinicians should consider this when interpreting dilated OCTA results.

5.

Diagnostic Ability of Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Macula Vessel Density for the Diagnosis of Glaucoma Using Difference Scan Sizes.

Penteado Rafaella C, Bowd Christopher, Proudfoot James A, Moghimi Sasan, Manalastas Patricia I C, Ghahari Elham et al.

J GlaucomaApr 202030 citationsCross-Sectional Study

Studying OCT-A macula vessel density, 6x6mm scans (outer region) improved early glaucoma detection compared to 3x3mm scans, offering better diagnostic accuracy for mild disease.

7.

Association Between Lamina Cribrosa Defects and Progressive Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Loss in Glaucoma.

Moghimi Sasan, Zangwill Linda M, Manalastas Patricia Isabel C, Suh Min Hee, Penteado Rafaella C, Hou Huiyuan et al.

JAMA OphthalmolApr 20190 citationsCohort Study

Glaucoma patients with lamina cribrosa defects showed twice as fast retinal nerve fiber layer thinning, particularly in affected regions. This suggests LC defects are a significant, localized progression risk factor.

8.

Association of Macular and Circumpapillary Microvasculature with Visual Field Sensitivity in Advanced Glaucoma.

Ghahari Elham, Bowd Christopher, Zangwill Linda M, Proudfoot James, Hasenstab Kyle A, Hou Huiyuan et al.

Am J OphthalmolMar 20190 citationsCross-Sectional Study

This study found that reduced blood vessel density in the macula and optic nerve, measured by OCTA, correlates with worse visual field in advanced glaucoma, highlighting microvascular changes in disease progression.

12.

Macular Vessel Density in Glaucomatous Eyes With Focal Lamina Cribrosa Defects.

Ghahari Elham, Bowd Christopher, Zangwill Linda M, Suh Min Hee, Shoji Takuhei, Hasenstab Kyle A et al.

J GlaucomaApr 201810 citationsCase-Control Study

This study found that while macular vessel density was similar in glaucoma patients with and without lamina cribrosa defects, focal ganglion cell loss was greater in those with defects, suggesting vessel density alone may be insufficient for assessing macular glaucoma.

13.

Inter-eye Asymmetry of Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Vessel Density in Bilateral Glaucoma, Glaucoma Suspect, and Healthy Eyes.

Hou Huiyuan, Moghimi Sasan, Zangwill Linda M, Shoji Takuhei, Ghahari Elham, Manalastas Patricia Isabel C et al.

Am J OphthalmolMar 201859 citationsCross-Sectional Study

This study found glaucoma suspects have significantly greater inter-eye retinal vessel density asymmetry than healthy eyes, suggesting OCT-A asymmetry may aid early glaucoma detection.

15.

Distribution of intraocular pressure, central corneal thickness and vertical cup-to-disc ratio in a healthy Iranian population: the Yazd Eye Study.

Pakravan Mohammad, Javadi Mohammad Ali, Yazdani Shahin, Ghahari Elham, Behroozi Zohreh, Soleimanizad Reza et al.

Acta OphthalmolOct 201614 citationsCross-Sectional Study

This study found average IOP, CCT, and VCDR values in healthy Iranians, differing from other ethnicities. Clinically, these population-specific norms are crucial for accurate glaucoma diagnosis and management.
