Glaucoma, OCT, Optical coherence tomography, Retinal ganglion cell layer, Retinal nerve fiber layer
In this review article, the authors describe a probability model based upon only OCT to detect glaucoma. They explain how normal anatomical variation can lead to false positives and applying a model to account for this improves specificity. The application...

Ganglion cell layer, Hydroxychloroquine, Optical coherence tomography, Retina, Retinal thickness
In this retrospective longitudinal study, the authors examined changes in retinal layer thickness in patients taking hydroxychloroquine without evidence of retinopathy. Patients were drawn from a hydroxychloroquine screening clinic and required at least two OCT scans, at least one year...
