Abstract

Purpose : To observe the retinal nerve fiber bundles (NFB) of segmental optic nerve hypoplasia (SOH) using en-face imaging of swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT)

Methods : 22 eyes from 16 patients with SOH were examined using SS-OCT. Mean age was 40.6±17.8 yr-old and mean spherical equivalent error was -4.2±3.0 diopter. Three-dimensional 6 times 6 mm cube raster scans of the optic nerve head and macular were obtained with SS-OCT. The NFB were observed after flatten processing against the inner limiting membrane.

Results : In all 22 eyes with SOH, NFB defects were widely distributed from upper to lower nasal around the optic nerve head. The mean angle of NFB defects was 120±27.1 degrees. No NFB defects were detectable in the macular and lower temporal areas. 6 eyes combined comb-like NFB defects in the upper temporal area. These images were completely different from those with glaucomatous optic neuropathy (GON).

Conclusions : Examination of NFB defects by en-face imaging of SS-OCT is quite useful for diagnosis of SOH and for differential diagnosis from GON.
