Glaucomatous neuropathy, compressive optic neuropathy, minimal rim width, non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy, non-glaucomatous neuropathy
Differential diagnosis of optic neuropathies can be challenging but is crucial for the correct management of the underlying disease and prevention of further damage. Bruch’s membrane opening (BMO) was recently discovered as the anatomical border of the optic disc. BMO...

OCT, RNFL, Retinal nerve fiber layer, Spectralis, optical coherence tomography, signal strength
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of signal strength on mean retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) using spectralis optical coherence tomography (S-OCT). Thirty normal subjects were imaged with S-OCT using variably dense Bangerter foils to alter...
OCT angiography findings in amblyopic eyes
In this study, optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) was used to detect the existence of any vascular dysfunction in superficial and deep retinal layers that accompany visual impairment in amblyopic eyes compared to fellow and control eyes. The study included...Measurement considerations in OCT results with suspected glaucoma
The purpose of this study was to determine retinal nerve fibre (RNFL) thickness parameters and assess the relationship between the cup-to-disc (CD) ratio and RNFL measurements of paediatric patients who had optic nerve appearance suspicious for glaucoma based on enlarged...Ocular toxoplasmosis

The authors present a retrospective case note review of all adult patients referred for or diagnosed with central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) to a single tertiary hospital over a 10½ year period. A total of 181 patients were included in...
Eye disorders occurring in congenital CMV
The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between congenital cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection and ophthalmological disorders that occur in children and record the frequency and type of eye disorders that occur from the infection. Of 449 potential studies,...Does methanol poisoning require ophthalmic investigation?
