Description |
Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is useful in monitoring optic nerve disease. Few studies have looked at the utility of OCT in severe vision loss (SVL) states. Visual acuity in patients with end stage optic neuropathy may be classified using the semiquantitative scale of counting finger (CF), hand motion (HM), light perception (LP), and no light perception (NLP). |
