The Foveal Position Relative to the Optic Disc and the Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness Profile in Myopia

Abstract

The intrinsic foveal position relative to the optic disc was an essential determinant of normal RNFL thickness in myopia. In particular, it was associated with the vertical asymmetry of RNFL distribution.

Clustering of Combined 24-2 and 10-2 Visual Field Grids and Their Relationship With Circumpapillary Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness

“…14,32 We set the reference line as the fovea-ONH center axis to minimize the influence of the variability, although the effect was not fully determined. [33][34][35][36] The 24-2 VF grid has four test points between (and including) fixation and the optic disc (i.e., test point numbers 34, 35, 44, and 45 in Fig. 1B).…”

Ocular characteristics associated with the location of focal lamina cribrosa defects in open-angle glaucoma patients

“…The extent of temporal and vertical tilt was measured from HRT printouts using the ImageJ software, as described previously. 19,23 Temporal disc tilt was defined as the tilt degree between a horizontal line and a line drawn manually to connect the two points where the height profile and disc margin met. Vertical disc tilt was defined as the angle between the vertical line and the line connecting the two points where the height profile and disc margin met.…”

In Vivo Adaptive Optics Imaging of the Temporal Raphe and Its Relationship to the Optic Disc and Fovea in the Human Retina

“…This is unlikely to be caused by a bias in the measured foveal depression angles because they varied from À28 to À158 across individuals in our study, very similar to results of other studies. 9,13,37,38 Other possible sources attributed to the raphe angle variance include subjects' head position and measurement errors of identifying the disc center, fovea, and raphe. Future studies are warranted to investigate the roles of these sources of variance on the raphe angle measurement.…”
