Measurement Floors and Dynamic Ranges of OCT and OCT Angiography in Glaucoma.

In late-stage glaucoma, particularly when VF MD is worse than -14 dB, OCTA-measured pfVD is a promising tool for monitoring progression because it does not have a detectable measurement floor.

Macular and Optic Nerve Head Vessel Density and Progressive Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Loss in Glaucoma.

Lower baseline macular and optic nerve head (ONH) vessel density are associated with a faster rate of RNFL progression in mild to moderate glaucoma.

Peripapillary and Macular Vessel Density in Patients with Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma and Unilateral Visual Field Loss.

OCT-A measures detect changes in retinal microvasculature before VF damage is detectable in patients with POAG, and these changes may reflect damage to tissues relevant to the pathophysiology of glaucoma.

Progression of Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma in Diabetic and Nondiabetic Patients.

POAG patients with treated type 2 DM, who had no detectable diabetic retinopathy, had significantly slower rates of RNFL thinning compared to those without diagnosed DM.

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

These data suggest that LC defects are an independent risk factor for RNFL thinning and that glaucoma progression may correspond topographically to the LC defect location.
