A

six degrees but central spit into two so 3 degrees.

113
Q

Degrees between spots in 10-2

A

2 degrees

114
Q

Partial arcuate loss

A

When the NFL bundle is affected. Defect connected the blind spot to midline. Must have one abnormal spot in temporal field.

Diffuse NFL Atrophy

A

Most common pattern seen. More common in HT glaucoma. Occurs in superior and inferior arcades. Zones appear thin or raked.

149
Q

NLF Reversal

A

Seen with NFL atrophy. Brightest in papillomacular area and dimmest by the disc (what is normally seen)

150
Q

What size nerves do you miss glaucoma with

A

small nerves as their C/D will be smaller.

151
Q

Order of changes in glaucoma

A

NFL then ON changes and then VF.

152
Q

Normal IOP

A

12-22

153
Q

Enhanced Depth Imaging

A

Allows for imaging of the choroid and structures below the RPE. Heidelberg and Cirrus do this. Can detect lamina cribs changes.

154
Q

Glaucoma and choroid

A

Thinner.

155
Q

Cirrus OCT

A

Have a normative data base of NFL, macula thickness, and ON parameter. Only adjusted by age and not race or other factors.

156
Q

Optic disc cube scan

A

6 x 6 scan.

157
Q

Calculation Center

A

automatically centers and places a circle around the ONH for repeatable measures.

158
Q

How does the cirrus calculation the termination of the Optic nerve?

A

The end of brush’s membrane.

159
Q

Important things to look at in NFL

A

Symmetry index and average NFL thickness

160
Q

Guided progression analysis (GPA)

A

greatest thing to come up with glaucoma management

161
Q

If you find a drance heme and the patients has not been dx with glaucoma what is the chance he will be dx

A

5x

162
Q

If you are treating for glaucoma and see a drance heme what is the rate of progression

A

2x

163
Q

How long for dance heme to show up on VF

A

6-8 weeks. Can start meds ASAP.

164
Q

Sirus ganglion cell layer

A

Different as it pulls out the NFL and the complex is only GCL and IPL.

165
Q

Best tool for monitoring advanced glaucoma

A

VF as nothing to scan in OCT if advanced.

166
Q

Flicker Defined Form

A

Good for dx glaucoma.

167
Q

MultiColor Scanning

A

IR, Green, Blue scans. Gives you detail of different pathologies in different layers.

168
Q

Revue database

A

Unique as compare to age, signal strength, and OD size.

169
Q

FLV%

A

Detects localized thinning using a pattern deviation

170
Q

GLV%

A

Detects thinning of GCC using pattern deviation

171
Q

FLV and GCC importance

A

Great predictor of glaucoma advancements. 41% suspects have glaucoma and 60% glaucoma have VF defects.

172
Q

Normal change in NFL or GGC per year

A

.2 microns
