| Abstract |
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) analyzes the neurodegeneration in neuromyelitis optica (NMO) and multiple sclerosis (MS) and quantifies optical atrophy. The retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell layer (GCL) thickness are decreased, and this structural change is correlated with visual function of patients, including contrast vision and visual field deviation. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the Bruch membrane opening minimum rim width (BMO) of the patients with NMO |
