Overview

Comparative study assesses optical coherence tomography angiography efficacy in true and pseudo-optic disc swelling cases, showing significant differences.

Key Points

  • Efficacy of optical coherence tomography angiography indicates reduced vessel density in true optic disc swelling and NAION cases, suggesting diagnostic implications.
  • Patients with NAION exhibited the highest mean peripapillary RNFL thickness values, followed by those with papilledema and healthy controls.
  • Comparative study involved 60 patients and 50 control eyes, assessing various optic disc swellings through detailed ophthalmological examinations and imaging.
  • Findings highlight the need for further research to investigate the relationship between radial peripapillary capillary density and optic disc swelling conditions.
