Comparison of optical coherence tomography angiography metrics in primary angle-closure glaucoma and normal-tension glaucoma
Abstract To investigate the peripapillary vascular metrics in early normal tension glaucoma (NTG) and early primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) eyes using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A). One or both eyes of each subject were imaged for a 3 × 3 mm peripapillary region by swept-sou...

One or both eyes of each subject were imaged for a 3 × 3 mm peripapillary region by swept-source OCT-A (DRI-OCT Triton, Topcon, Japan) and assessed by an automated MATLAB program. OCT-A metrics including circumpapillary vessel density (cpVD) and fractal dimension (cpFD) were compared. Their association with visual field (VF) parameters and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness were determined. Sixty-eight eyes of 51 PACG, 68 eyes of 48 NTG, and 68 eyes of 49 control subjects were cross-sectionally analyzed. NTG eyes had significantly lower global cpVD (52.369 ± 0.781%) compared with PACG eyes (55.389 ± 0.721%, P = 0.004) that had comparable disease severity and average RNFL thickness. Multivariable analysis revealed that, for PACG and NTG eyes, decreased cpVD ([PACG] β = −4.242; CI: −8.120, −0.363 vs [NTG] β = −5.531; CI: −9.472, −1.590) and cpFD ([PACG] β = −8.894;CI: −11.925, −5.864 vs [NTG] β = −12.064; CI: −17.095, −6.932) were associated with decreased RNFL thickness (all P ≤ 0.032); with a stronger association between decrease cpFD and decreased RNFL thickness in NTG eyes (P = 0.028). Decreased cpVD was associated with decrease mean deviation (MD) in NTG eyes (β = −0.707; CI: −1.090, −0.324; P ≤ 0.001) and not associated with the visual field parameters in PACG eyes.
