Abstract:
Objective To compare the clinical value of Heidelberg retinal tomography (HRT-Ⅱ) and Heidelberg optical coherence tomography (HRA OCT) in discriminating healthy eyes and pre-perimetric glaucoma eyes.Methods A total of 33 patients with pre-perimetric glaucoma and 37 healthy subjects were included in this study.All individuals underwent imaging tests with HRT-Ⅱ and HRA OCT within 1-month period.ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis test were used to compare all of the parameters from HRT-Ⅱ and HRA-OCT between pre-perimetric glaucoma eyes and normal eyes.Receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC) were calculated for all of the parameters to seek the best discriminant point of each instrument between pre-perinmetric glaucoma and healthy eyes.Results Statistically significant differences were found in most of the HRT-Ⅱ parameters except for disc area and height variation contour between pre-perimetric glaucomatous eyes and normal eyes (all P<0.05),which showed that most of the HRT-Ⅱ parameters were capable of diagnosing preperimetic glaucoma except for the disc area and height variation contour (all P<0.05).66.7% of the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC) from HRT-Ⅱ parameters were larger than 0.800 and 58.3% of the AUC were larger than 0.900.Statistically significant differences were found in most of the HRA-OCT parameters except for the nasal retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL)thickness between pre-perimetric glaucoma eyes and normal eyes (all P<0.05),which showed that most of the HRA-OCT parameters were capable of diagnosing pre-perimetic glaucoma except for the nasal RNFL thickness (all P<0.05).66.7% of the AUC from HRA-OCT parameters were larger than 0.800 and 33.3 % of the AUC were larger than 0.900.No statistically significant difference was found between the AUC for the best parameter diagnosing pre-perimetic glaucoma from HRT Ⅱ (cup/disk area ratio,AUC =0.984) and HRA OCT (average RNFL thickness,AUC =0.940).No Statistically significant differences were found in specificity and sensitivity of diagnosing pre-perimetic glaucoma between the two best parameters cup/disk area ratio and average RNFL thickness (both P>0.05).Conclusions Both HRT-Ⅱ and HRA-OCT can well reflect the damage of optic disc and retinal nerve fiber layer in eyes with pre-perimetric glaucoma.HRT-Ⅱ and HRA-OCT have higher accuracy and similar sensitivity and specificity for the diagnosis of pre-perimetric glaucoma.
