To elucidate which swept-source optical coherence tomography (OCT)-derived optic nerve head (ONH) parameters are associated with longer axial length (AXL) in healthy myopic eyes. Prospective cross-sectional observational study. Two hundred eleven healthy eyes of 140 participants (96 emmetropic-mild myopic [AXL: 22.2-24.5 mm], 83 moderately myopic [24.5-26.0 mm], and 32 highly myopic [26.0-27.4 mm] eyes) were enrolled. Bruch membrane opening (BMO), anterior scleral canal opening (ASCO) area and ovality, minimum rim width, parameters defining misalignment between the BMO and ASCO planes, OCT-defined region of perineural canal retinal epithelium atrophy and externally oblique choroidal border tissue, circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (cpRNFLT), circumpapillary choroidal thickness (cpChT), lamina cribrosa parameters, and peripapillary scleral (PPS) angle were calculated from BMO-centered radial scans reconstructed from 3D raster scans. Multivariate linear mixed models were used to elucidate ONH parameters that are independently associated with AXL. Longer AXL was associated with a greater misalignment between ASCO and BMO planes, larger region of externally oblique choroidal border tissue, thinner cpChT, larger PPS angle, larger ASCO area, and thicker cpRNFLT (all P < .040 after Bonferroni's correction for number of included explanatory variables). A greater misalignment between BMO and ASCO planes, thinner choroid, a more posteriorly bowed PPS, an enlargement of ASCO, and thicker cpRNFLT were each associated with longer AXL. An enhanced understanding of these AXL-associated configurations should provide essential information to improve our ability to detect glaucoma-induced ONH morphology in myopic eyes.

Nanosheets bearing fluoroalkoxy groups were prepared via exfoliation of a CF₃(CF₂)₇C₂H₄O derivative of HLaNb₂O₇·xH₂O for application in epoxy-based hybrids.

This study aimed to evaluate the effect of magnification error and axial length (AL) on circumpapillary capillary density (cpCD) and circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (cpRNFLT) in healthy eyes. Seventy-two healthy eyes of 72 subjects with AL 24.7 ± 1.5 mm (range: 20.9–28.0 mm) were enrolled in this retrospective cross-sectional study and underwent optical coherence tomography angiography scanning. Magnification corrected measurement areas were obtained using AL upon which corrected cpCD, cpRNFLT values were determined. Relationships between AL and the percentage difference between corrected and uncorrected values (ΔcpCD, ΔcpRNFLT) as well as the effect of AL on magnification corrected cpCD, cpRNFLT were evaluated. ΔcpCD significantly increased with AL in the global, inferior nasal and superior nasal sectors (all p < 0.001). ΔcpRNFLT significantly increased with AL in global and all sectors (all p < 0.001) and the correlations were significantly stronger than that of ΔcpCD-AL in all sectors (all p < 0.001). Corrected cpCD did not associate with AL while corrected cpRNFLT demonstrated a significant positive association with AL in the global (p = 0.005) and temporal sector (p < 0.001). Magnification error led to a significant underestimation of cpCD in eyes with longer AL although its underestimation and the effect of AL was smaller in comparison to that of cpRNFLT.

To report the frequency of post glaucoma filtration surgery hypotonic maculopathy determined by spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). A cross-sectional retrospective observational study. Post glaucoma filtration surgery patients whose intraocular pressures (IOP) achieved 30% reduction from baseline or was controlled to IOP 0.05). In most cases, hypotonic maculopathy detected by SD-OCT were not recognizable on fundus photographs. Hypotonic maculopathy was detected not only in eyes with conventional ocular hypotony (IOP < 6 mm Hg) but also in eyes with IOP between 7 and 10 mm Hg.

To investigate factors associated with the severity of prelaminar schisis (PLS) in heathy subjects and glaucoma patients. Prospective cross-sectional study. A total of 217 eyes of 217 subjects (110 normal eyes and 107 open angle glaucoma eyes) were studied. Frequency and severity of PLS were compared between normal and glaucomatous eyes. Multivariate logistic models were used to assess factors associated with the severity of PLS. Factors considered were age, axial length, glaucomatous damage indices, Bruch membrane opening (BMO) and anterior scleral canal opening parameters, tractional forces (posterior vitreous staging and presence of Bergmeister papilla), circumpapillary choroidal thickness, lamina cribrosa (LC) parameters, and peripapillary scleral (PPS) angle. The frequency of PLS was 70.9% in normal eyes and 72.0% in glaucomatous eyes. There was no difference in frequency and severity between the groups. The presence of Bergmeister papilla was the strongest predictor of a more severe PLS in both normal and glaucomatous eyes (odds ratio [OR] + 9.78, 12.5; both P < .001). A larger PPS angle in normal eyes (OR = 1.19; P = .003) and a larger BMO area and a deeper LC depth in glaucomatous eyes (OR = 1.08, 1.05; both P = .038) were associated with severity of PLS. The severity of PLS was strongly associated with the presence of Bergmeister papilla, suggesting a traction-related phenomenon. Correlation of PLS severity with larger BMO area and deeper LC depth, which are optic nerve head structures associated with glaucoma, suggested its possible relationship with glaucomatous damage.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the structure function relationship of circumpapillary vessel density (cpVD) with visual field sensitivity (VFS) and compare its characteristics with circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (cpRNFLT) in early glaucomatous (EG) and normal eyes with and without high myopia (HM). Methods: Seventy-five EG (mean deviation > −6 dB) and 7 normal eyes with HM (axial length [AL] >26.5 mm) and 111 EG and 11 normal eyes without HM were enrolled in this retrospective cross-sectional study. All patients underwent circumpapillary optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA) scanning with the Cirrus HD-6000 with AngioPlex OCTA (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA, USA). Structure function correlations were determined by comparing global, superior, inferior, and Garway-Heath sectoral values for cpVD and cpRNFLT with its corresponding 24-2 and 10-2 VFS of Humphrey Visual Field (HFA) analyzer. Results: CpVD showed no significant correlations with AL except for the nasal sector (P = 0.044), whereas cpRNFLT demonstrated significant positive association with AL in the global (P = 0.024), nasal (P = 0.020), and temporal (P < 0.001) sectors. In HM eyes, global and sectoral cpVD significantly correlated with corresponding VFS in all 24-2/10-2 VF sectors (all P < 0.05). CpVD-VFS correlation was significantly stronger than cpRNFLT-VFS in the nasal sector of HM eyes (P = 0.002) and temporal and inferior temporal sector of eyes without HM (P = 0.008 and P = 0.042, respectively). Conclusions: In EG eyes with HM, cpVD was less affected by AL in comparison to cpRNFLT and cpVD-VFS correlation was significant in all 24-2/10-2 VF sectors. AL-associated advantages of cpVD-VFS over cpRNFLT-VFS were observed.
