PurposeTo determine the influence of the optic disc–fovea distance (DFD) on the normative classifications based on thickness measurements of macular inner retinal layers with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) in healthy subjects.MethodsA total of 182 eyes from 182 healthy subjects were included (mean (SD) spherical equivalent −0.8 (1.9) dioptres). We performed macula and optic disc imaging with the Topcon 3D OCT 2000. The thickness of the macular inner retinal layers (macular retinal nerve fibre layer (mRNFL), ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) and both combined (ganglion cell complex; GCC)) and the corresponding classifications based on the built-in normative database were recorded. The occurrence of an abnormal normative classification (occurrence of any thickness variable below the fifth percentile) was related to the DFD and other factors (axial length/refraction, optic disc area, fovea–disc angle, age, gender, image quality, visual field mean deviation and peripapillary retinal nerve fibre layer thickness), using logistic regression.ResultsThe mean (SD) DFD was 4.90 (0.29) mm. A greater DFD was associated with a higher percentage of abnormal normative classification in the OCT parameters describing the thickness of the mRNFL (OR (95%CI) per 0.1 mm increase in DFD: 1.30 (1.13 to 1.50), p<0.001), GCIPL (1.18 (1.02 to 1.38), p=0.023) and GCC measurement (1.29 (1.08 to 1.55), p=0.006).ConclusionsEyes with a greater DFD are prone to false-positive classifications in the thickness assessment of the macular inner retinal layers. The thicknesses should always be interpreted in the context of DFD.

AimTo compare retinal ganglion cell (RGC)-related layer thickness asymmetry between early open-angle glaucoma (EG) eyes with superior and inferior hemiretina damage.MethodsThis was a retrospective study including 95 EG eyes (mean deviation >−2 dB, including 43 preperimetric glaucoma eyes) with photographically determined glaucomatous retinal nerve fibre layer defect and disc change confined to one hemiretina, and 93 age, sex and refraction matched normal subjects as controls. Ganglion cell complex, ganglion cell layer+inner plexiform layer and circumpapillary retinal nerve fibre layer thickness measured by spectral domain optical coherence imaging were compared between the affected and unaffected hemiretinae within each glaucoma eye as well as to those of the corresponding hemiretina of normal control eyes.ResultsIntraeye comparison revealed that there was no significant difference in all parameters between the affected and unaffected hemiretinae in eyes with superior hemiretina damage (p=0.110~0.343) while all parameters were thinner in the affected inferior hemiretina compared with the unaffected superior hemiretina in eyes with inferior hemiretina damage (p<0.001). The affected hemiretina of both groups were thinner compared with normal controls (p<0.001). All parameters of the unaffected hemiretina of eyes with superior hemiretina damage were thinner than normal controls (p<0.001), while eyes with inferior hemiretina damage showed no significant difference compared with those of their corresponding hemiretina of normal eyes (p=0.086~0.924).ConclusionThe pattern of RGC damage in early stage glaucoma may differ depending on which horizontal hemiretina is affected first.
