Efficacy of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer (RNFL) / Ganglion Cell Layer Thickness Ratio by RT-View Utilizing Spectral -Domain Technology as a Diagnostic Predictor of Glaucoma.

Yonsei University300 enrolled

Overview

RT-View utilizes spectral domain technology to assess both RNFL and ganglion cell layer thickness. This study aims to correlate visual field defects in patients with glaucoma to both RNFL and ganglion cell layer thickness.
