Patterns of Damage in Young Myopic Glaucomatous-appearing Patients With Different Optic Disc Tilt Direction.

The disc tilt direction may be related to asymmetrical pRNFL loss and the location and gravity of VF loss at initial presentation in young myopic glaucomatous-appearing patients.

Optic disc tilt direction affects regional visual field progression rates in myopic eyes with open-angle glaucoma.

Myopic OAG eyes show significantly different regional VF progression rates according to disc tilt direction.

Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Damage in Young Myopic Eyes With Optic Disc Torsion and Glaucomatous Hemifield Defect.

Young myopic eyes with ODT and hemifield VF loss often show glaucomatous RNFL defects at both hemiretinas and significantly lower pRNFLT in the ODT-unaffected hemiretinas compared with matched hemiretinas of control eyes.

Comparison of rates of retinal nerve fibre layer thinning between patients with non-myopic and myopic glaucoma.

Overall rate of RNFL thinning was not different among the glaucoma subgroups based on refractive error. However, sectoral RNFL thinning showed significant difference.

Is Myopic Optic Disc Appearance a Risk Factor for Rapid Progression in Medically Treated Glaucomatous Eyes With Confirmed Visual Field Progression?

Open-angle glaucoma eyes with myopic optic disc appearance experiencing progressive VF changes showed similar VF progression rates globally and regionally when compared with nonmyopic eyes after controlling for clinical factors related to VF progression.

Implications of Optic Disc Tilt in the Progression of Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma.

Myopic eyes with tilted disc demonstrated a smaller probability of glaucomatous progression. Optic disc tilt may be protective against glaucoma progression, or tilted myopic glaucomatous eyes may have less progressive characteristic by nature.

Macular structure-function relationship at various spatial locations in glaucoma.

The strength of the S-F associations at the temporal parafoveal location is significantly greater than that of the central or nasal parafoveal location in each hemimacula.

Relationship Between Nocturnal Intraocular Pressure Elevation and Diurnal Intraocular Pressure Level in Normal-Tension Glaucoma Patients.

In NTG eyes with a low diurnal IOP, there are significant IOP increases at nighttime in the habitual position, whereas there is no significant nocturnal IOP elevation in NTG eyes with a high diurnal IOP.

Effect of myopia on the progression of primary open-angle glaucoma.

No levels of myopia were associated with glaucoma progression in our study.
