Purpose: To evaluate the agreement
between Moorfield Regression
Analysis (MRA) and peripapillary
retinal nerve fibers layer thickness.
Methods: 54 eyes with normal VF
and 18 with early VF damage were
classified as ocular hypertension or
early primary open angle glaucoma
(POAG) and were included in the
study: All the subjects performed
achromatic 30\ub0 visual field (VF) by
Octopus Program G1X dynamic
strategy and were imaged by HRT 3
and I-Vue OCT. Sectorial and global
MRA and OCT parameters were
used for the analysis. Kappa statistic
was used to assess the agreement
between methods.
Results: A significant agreement
between I-Vue OCT and MRA a
good agreement was shown in the
supero-nasal (\u3ba 0.656) and nasal
(\u3ba 0.627) quadrants followed by the
supero-temporal (\u3ba 0.602) and inferotemporal
(\u3ba 0.586) sectors in all the
eyes studied.
Conclusion: Our results suggest that
the measurements of the ganglion
cells by HRT 3 and I-Vue OCT are not
interchangeable
