Purpose
To evaluate the association between OCT-angiography (OCTA) and photopic negative response (PhNR) in open angle glaucoma (OAG) patients and assess the diagnostic accuracy of these parameters in early detection of glaucoma.
Methods
A total of 152 eyes were enrolled in this study, 28 eyes with mild POAG (group I), 44 eyes with moderate-severe POAG (group 2) & 80 eyes of healthy subjects (control group). Full ophthalmological examination, OCTA and PhNR measurements were underwent for all participants. RNFL, GCC thicknesses, PhNR (implicit time and amplitude) were recorded. The superficial and deep capillary plexus vessel density (SCP-VD%, DCP-VD%) were measured by using 6 × 6 mm macula OCTA scans. The peripapillary vessel density (RPC-VD %) were measured by using 4.5 × 4.5 mm optic disk head OCTA scans.
