The optic nerve head can morphologically be differentiated into the optic disc with the
lamina cribrosa as its basis, and the parapapillary region with zones alpha (irregular …

Recent evidence indicates that sensory and motor changes may precede the cognitive
symptoms of Alzheimer's disease (AD) by several years and may signify increased risk of …

Objective: To demonstrate optical coherence tomography for high-resolution, noninvasive
imaging of the human retina. Optical coherence tomography is a new imaging technique …

We measured the number and size of retinal ganglion cells from six human eyes with
glaucoma. In each, the histologic findings were correlated with visual field results. Five age …

Background/Purpose: To assess the potential of a new diagnostic technique called optical
coherence tomography for imaging macular disease. Optical coherence tomography is a …

We propose here a conceptual framework for understanding the optic nerve head (ONH) as
a biomechanical structure. Basic principles of biomechanical engineering are used to …

purpose. To compare the number of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) topographically mapped
with specific visual field threshold test data in the same eyes among glaucoma patients …

Glaucoma is recognized to have its major detrimental effect upon the eye by killing retinal
ganglion cells. The process of cell death appears to be initiated at the optic nerve head …

Purpose: Quantitative assessment of nerve fiber layer (NFL) thickness in normal and
glaucomatous eyes, and correlation with conventional measurements of the optic nerve …

The impact of aging on cell loss in the human retina was examined in foveal and temporal
equatorial regions in eyes from 35 donors with ages spanning a 78-yr period from the …
