Title Optic disc edema does not always correlate with retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickening
Creator Mark Morrow
Subject optical coherence tomography; retinal nerve fiber layer; optic nerve head; papilledema; optic nerve drusen
Description Optical coherence tomography (OCT) allows precise anatomical assessment of the retina and optic nerve head (ONH). The thickness of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) surrounding the optic nerve has been validated as a measure of the integrity of the retinal ganglion cell (RGC) axons that are its chief constituent.
