Description Recent studies have demonstrated that patients with glaucoma have reduced peripapillary retinal capillary density on OCT angiography, but it remains unknown if these changes are the cause of glaucoma or secondary to the glaucoma. We used OCT angiography to compare the retinal peripapillary capillary network in a variety of chronic optic neuropathies to determine if all chronic optic neuropathies show a decrease in peripapillary capillary perfusion.
