Diagnostic value of optical coherence tomography angiography in the study of primary open-angle glaucoma combined with high myopia
Journal Title: Eye Science (Yanke Xuebao) - Year 2020, Vol 35, Issue 6
Abstract
Early diagnosis and progression analysis of patients with high myopic disc and periapical changes in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) complicated with high myopic glaucoma are difficult. Optical coherence tomography (OCTA) is a non-invasive fundus imaging technique that quantifies the blood flow density of each part of the retina and choroid, with the characteristics of non-invasive, rapid and can be followed up. OCTA can be used to evaluate abnormal blood flow in various parts of the choroid and retina, and combined with changes in retinal nerve fiber layer thickness and visual field, so as to provide evidence for early diagnosis, disease progression analysis and treatment effect evaluation of high myopia with POAG. In this paper, the changes and characteristics of OCTA fundus blood flow in patients with POAG, high myopia and POAG combined with high myopia were reviewed, so as to provide a reliable reference index for the clinical diagnosis of POAG combined with high myopia.
