Abstract:
PURPOSE:To document and study the relationship between perimetric sensitivity and retinal thickness at the foveal and parafoveal points in eyes with macular edema associated with branch retinal vein occlusion. METHODS:A prospective study was performed using the central 10-2 Humphrey perimetry program and optical coherence tomography. Seventeen eyes with branch retinal vein occlusion were eligible showing macular edema without macular nonperfusion or massive retinal hemorrhage. RESULTS:The sensitivity and retinal thickness were significantly correlated at the fovea (r = -0.629, P =.006) as well as 1 (r = -0.656, P <.0001) and 3 (r = -0.885, P <.0001) degrees apart from the fovea. The visual acuity that is expressed as a logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (LogMAR) also correlated with retinal thickness (r = 0.591, P =.011). CONCLUSION:The increased retinal thickness resulting from macular edema is closely correlated with retinal sensitivity as measured by automated static perimetry both at the fovea and parafovea. Measuring the retinal thickness using optical coherence tomography may be useful in monitoring macular edema in eyes with branch retinal vein occlusion.
