Choroidal and macular thickness in nonarteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy

1 December 2014 | | Neuro-Ophthalmology | Choroidal thickness, enhanced depth imaging, macular thickness, nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy, optical coherence tomography

This study evaluates the choroidal and macular thickness in patients with chronic nonarteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NA-AION). Two groups of subjects were compared, group one included 20 eyes with chronic NA-AION and group two, 31 healthy control eyes. The...

Choroidal thickness in ocular sarcoidosis by OCT measurement

1 December 2014 | | Retina / Uvea / Vitreous | Choroidal thickness, enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomograph, quiescent phase, sarcoidosis, uveitis

This is the first study to evaluate the choroidal thickness in patients with ocular sarcoidosis during the quiescent phase using enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) and comparing with normal subjects. Ocular sarcoidosis may affect the choroidal circulation (occlusive...
