Abstract The morphological and vascular characteristics of the optic nerve head (ONH) in normal guinea pigs remain unknown. Therefore, we aimed to investigate these parameters using optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). We measured the refractive error, axial length, and intraocular pressure (IOP), and performed OCT and OCTA of the ONH in 3- and 4-week-old tricolour guinea pigs. A total of 208 right eyes from 208 normal guinea pigs were examined. The refractive error in the 3-week group was significantly larger than that in the 4-week group (p < 0.001), the IOP in the 3-week group was significantly lower than that in the 4-week group (p = 0.014), and the circumpapillary retinal nerve fibre layer (cpRNFL) thickness in the 3-week group was significantly larger than that in 4-week group (p = 0.048). There were no significant differences in the average vessel area, vascular density, total number of junctions, total vessel length, total number of endpoints, and vascular diameter between the two groups. However, an age-adjusted linear regression analysis revealed that total vessel length was positively associated with the cpRNFL thickness (p = 0.024) and negatively associated with IOP (p = 0.016). This is the first report on morphological and vascular characteristics of the ONH in normal guinea pigs based on in vivo OCT and OCTA imaging and quantification of ONH parameters. These results may contribute to further research on myopia and glaucoma using guinea pig models.
