| Summary: |
The aim of the present
study was to compare selected morphological parameters
of the optic nerve head and papillary blood flow in
patients with NTG, POAG and in healthy volunteers, as
well as to find any possible correlation between
selected morphological parameters and papillary blood
flow. 21 glaucomatous and 31 normal eyes were diagnosed
using HRT and HRF. Statistically significant differences
within many morphological parameters like cup area, cup
to disc, cup shape measure, rim volume, RFNL thickness,
RFNL cross section and neuroretinal rim blood flow
appeared. Nevertheless, in glaucoma patients no
statistically significant differences between morphology
and flow were found. The conclusion is that blood flow
impairment within the neuroretinal rim is connected with
glaucoma neuropathy development, nevertheless it is
affected by other factors. |
