The visual outcome obtained after cataract removal may progressively decline because of posterior capsular opacification (PCO). This condition can be treated by creating an opening in the posterior lens capsule by Nd:YAG laser capsulotomy. PCO optical imperfections cause several light reflection, refraction, and diffraction phenomena, which may interfere with the functional and structural tests performed in different ocular locations for the diagnosis and follow-up of ocular disease, like macular and optic nerve diseases. Some parameters measured by visual field examinations, scanning laser polarimetry, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) have changed after PCO removal. Imaging quality also changes following capsulotomy. Consequently, the results of ancillary tests in pseudophakic eyes for studying ocular diseases like glaucoma or maculopathies should be correlated with other clinical examinations, for example, slit-lamp biomicroscopy or funduscopy. If PCO is clinically significant, a new baseline should be set for future comparisons following capsulotomy when using automated perimetry and scanning laser polarimetry. To perform OCT in the presence of PCO, reliable examinations (considering signal strength) apparently guarantee that measurements are not influenced by PCO.

Primary Diagnostics

Purpose To evaluate the performance of various tests with automated and subjective evaluation for primary diagnostics of glaucoma in a normal clinical setting. Methods Subjects referred because of suspicion of glaucoma were recruited. All subjects had full ophthalmologic evaluation with stereophotography of the optic nerve head (ONH), red-free retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) photography, scanning laser polarimetry (SLP), optical coherence tomography (OCT), and standard automated perimetry (SAP). Analysis of all results was made jointly by 5 glaucoma specialists, with a consensus for each eye as healthy, glaucomatous, or glaucoma suspect. Results from each method were evaluated against this consensus, followed by a subjective evaluation of each method by a glaucoma specialist, comparing this with automated classification by the devices. Results Of the 101 subjects and 202 eyes examined, 23 eyes were by consensus glaucomatous, and 23 were glaucoma suspect. Sensitivity was best with ONH photos and worst with SAP, while SLP had a better sensitivity but poorer specificity than did RNFL photographs and OCT. Subjective evaluation of SLP, OCT, and SAP data gave better sensitivity and specificity than did classification by numeric values from the devices only, with OCT performing better in automatic classification than did SLP or SAP. Conclusions None of the current methods is superior to others in diagnosing glaucoma, and the accuracy of automated tests was better when subjectively evaluated by an experienced ophthalmologist. Diagnosis of glaucoma should be based on a combination of test results interpreted by a clinician.

The Difference

Abstract Short wavelength automated perimetry (SWAP) is known for detecting the early reduction of retinal sensitivity (RS) in glaucoma. It’s application in retinal diseases have also been discussed previously. We investigated the difference in RS measured between standard white-on-white automated perimetry (WW) and blue-on-yellow SWAP in central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC). The overall RS (W-RS, S-RS) as well as the RS inside and outside of the serous retinal detachment (SRD) region were investigated in 26 eyes of 26 CSC patients using WW and SWAP. The central retinal thickness, central choroidal thickness, SRD area (SRDa), and SRD height at the fovea were measured using optic coherence tomography. RS inside the SRD region was lower than that of outside for both perimetries (both p < 0.001). The difference between RS inside and outside of the SRD region was greater in SWAP compared to WW (p < 0.001). Univariate analysis revealed significant correlations between SRDa and both W-RS and S-RS (both p < 0.001); moreover, multivariate analysis indicated that only S-RS was selected as the optimal model for SRDa. Our study demonstrated that SWAP was detected the decrease in RS more accurately than WW in CSC. These results may suggest the usefulness of SWAP for detecting change of retinal function in CSC.

Purpose. To investigate transient focal microcystic retinoschisis in glaucomatous eyes in images obtained with several imaging techniques used in daily glaucoma care.Methods. Images of 117 glaucoma patients and 91 healthy subjects participating in a large prospective follow-up study into glaucoma imaging were reviewed. Participants were measured with spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), scanning laser polarimetry (SLP), scanning laser tomography (SLT), and standard automated perimetry (SAP). The presence of a focal retinoschisis in SD-OCT was observed and correlated to SLP, SLT, and SAP measurements, both cross-sectionally and longitudinally.Results. Seven out of 117 glaucoma patients showed a transient, localised, peripapillary, heterogeneous microcystic schisis of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and sometimes other retinal layers as well in SD-OCT. None of the healthy eyes showed this phenomenon nor did any of the other imaging techniques display it as detailed and consistently as did the SD-OCT. SAP showed a temporarily decreased focal retinal sensitivity during the retinoschisis and we found no signs of glaucomatous progression related to the retinoschisis.Conclusions. Transient microcystic retinoschisis appears to be associated with glaucomatous wedge defects in the RNFL. It was best observed with SD-OCT and it was absent in healthy eyes. We found no evidence that the retinoschisis predicted glaucomatous progression.
