Structural and Functional Analyses in Nonarteritic Anterior Ischemic Optic Neuropathy: Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Study

Abstract: The microvascular structures in the peripapillary retina and optic disc were reduced, but the cpRNFL thinning was associated with vessel density only in the peripapillary retina, indicating that the vessel densities in the peripapillary retina and optic disc may be differently affected in the pathological process of NAION.

“…A significant correlation between the peripapillary vessel density and pRNFL thickness in chronic NAION has been described [9]. Similarly, we found a significant correlation between temporal pRNFL thickness and PCD at temporal quadrant (0.635; p = 0.032).…”

“…In this patient, the predominantly superior location of the peripapillary microvascular abnormalities detected with OCT-A matched the correspondent inferior VF loss and superior GCIPL thinning. Similar findings have been reported using OptoVue [9,10].…”

“…Interestingly, while the peripapillary RNFL and visual field defect correlated with peripapillary vessel density, they did not correlate with optic nerve head vessel density. They hypothesized that this may be due to the fact that in acute non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy, disc swelling may cause additional damage to neighboring capillaries within the optic nerve head, leading to more diffusely reduced vessel density within the optic nerve head (Hata, Oishi et al 2016). Falavarjani et al also recently described the findings of 21 eyes with disc edema, pseudoedema, or atrophy as compared to healthy normal eyes using SS-OCTA.…”

“…Non-arteritic anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy (NAION) is a kind of serious ischaemic optic neuropathy, patients with NAION show a sudden, painless, decrease in vision accompanied with a visual field defect and optic disc edema [1][2][3][4]. It's believed that the pathogenesis of NAION is multifactorial [5,6], and the hypoperfusion of short posterior ciliary arteries (SPCAs) was proved to be the major cause [7].…”
