Longitudinal widefield OCT optic nerve thickness measurements in a case of incipient non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy
This use of 12 × 12 mm SS-OCTA scans and a semi-automated algorithm can significantly improve the detection and management of incipient NAION in clinical practice with the possibility that early detection would facilitate earlier intervention and better vision preservation in this condition. The use of widefield OCT imaging in conjunction with this novel algorithm in eyes at risk for optic nerve and macular edema could have broader implications for other retinal diseases in which optic disc and macular edema might arise such as diabetic retinopathy. Integrating this methodology into routine ophthalmic evaluations will enable clinicians to identify the onset of edema prior to vision loss, thereby improving patient outcomes.
