Only eyes with correct automatic segmentation and good-quality images (scan quality > 7/10) were included.Results: Forty-six eyes from 28 patients with glaucoma, 53 from 31 patients with ocular hypertension, and 62 from 38 controls were assessed. The mean measurements of all parameters investigated were significantly different in the morning and in the evening values in all three groups, with lower values in glaucomatous eyes (p<0.014). In control eyes, as well as in eyes of patients with ocular hypertension and glaucoma the daily changes were minimal and not statistically significant with means of +0.17%, −0.31% and −0.54% for ONH-VD (p=0.83) and means of +0.2%, +0.1% and +0.29% for PP-VD (p=0.83), respectively. Likewise, daily fluctuations in GCC and RNFL thickness were not significant in any of the three groups, with means of +0.16 μm, +0.66 μm and −0.15 μm for GCC (p=0.58) and means of +0.24 μm, +0.58 μm and −0.24 μm for ONH-RNFL (p=0.90), respectively. Systemic hypertension, age, axial length, daily changes in intraocular pressure or scan quality did not correlate with daily fluctuations of any of the parameters investigated (p>0.1).Conclusion: Vessel density, GCC and RNFL were stable during daytime thus corroborating the clinical relevance of OCTA regardless the time of acquisition.Keywords: glaucoma, optical coherence tomography angiography, vessel density, daily fluctuations, retinal fiber layerBochicchio SMilani PUrbini LEBulone ECarmassi LFratantonio ECastegna GScotti LZambon ABergamini FDove Medical PressarticleGlaucomaoptical coherence tomography angiographyvessel densitydaily fluctuationsretinal fiber layerOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 13, Pp 1823-1832 (2019) |
