Abstract:
Alteration in the structural appearance of the optic disk and retinal nerve fiber layer usually precedes the development of reproducible glaucomatous visual field defects.Identification of these changes is important in the diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma at an early to moderate stage and in monitoring its clinical course.This paper reviews the optical coherence tomography(OCT),Heidelberg retina tomography(HRT),optic nerve head stereophotograph(ONHP)and scanning laser polarimetry(SLP) in the field of open angle glaucoma.
