  • Changes of retinal nerve fiber layer thickness and its correlation with visual field mean defects in early Parkinson′s disease

      Objective To observe the changes of retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and its correlation with visual field mean defects(MD)in Parkinsonprime;s disease (PD).Methods Fifteen eyes of 15 PD patients in early stage and 18 eyes of 18 normal controls undertook RNFL examination by Stratus OCT3. Circular scans (diameter is 3.46 mm) were taken around the optic nerve head including eight quadrants (superior, inferior, temporal, nasal, temporalsuperior, temporalinferior, nasalsuperior and nasalinferior). The RNFL thickness in different quadrants in the two groups was analyzed. The visual field of PD patients was measured by central 302 program of Humphery750 visual field analyzer, and the MD was recorded. The correlation between RNFL thickness and MD was analyzed by linear correlation and regression analysis.Results RNFL thicknesses of superior, inferior, temporal, nasal, temporalsuperior, temporalinferior, nasalsuperior, nasalinferior and average RNFL thickness in the control group were (132.7plusmn;17.4), (141.5plusmn;15.3) ,(83.2plusmn;17.5), (83.7plusmn;22.3) ,(120.8plusmn;21.2), (117.9plusmn;24.5) ,(109.6plusmn;20.6),(110.2plusmn;27.7), and(109.9plusmn;8.5)mu;m respectively, while in the PD group they were (128.1plusmn;25.3) , (128.6plusmn;13.2) , (68.7plusmn;13.5) , (76.5plusmn;17.8) ,(102.6plusmn;23.7), (103.3plusmn;14.1) ,(101.2plusmn;20.9),(96.6plusmn;15.0),(102.3plusmn;11.9) mu;m. Compared with each other, the differences of RNFL thickness of inferior, temporal, temporalsuperior, temporalinferior and average RNFL thickness were statistically significant(t=2.595,2.700,2.330,2.153,2.131;P=0.014,0.011,0.026,0.040,0.041). There was a close negative relationship between average RNFL thickness and MD in PD patients (r=-0.933,P<0.0001). Conclusions RNFL thickness was significantly thinner in PD patients than that in the normal controls. There was a negative relationship between RNFL thickness and MD in PD patients.

  • Macular morphology and circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness in Parkinson's disease evaluated by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography

    Objective To observe the macular morphology and circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFL) in Parkinson's disease (PD) evaluated by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Methods A total of 37 patients (74 eyes) with PD were in the PD group, 32 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects (64 eyes) in the control group. All subjects underwent SD-OCT examination with 5 line scanning, macular cube 512×128 scanning and optic disc volume 200×200 scanning. The retinal thickness, central foveal thickness (CFT), macular volume and thickness of circumpapillary, superior, inferior, nasal, and temporal of RNFL between two groups were comparatively analyzed. The relationship between SD-OCT parameters and age, disease duration, scores of Hoehn-Yahr and unified PD rating scale (UPDRS) Ⅲ in PD patients was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis. Results Both of the retinal thickness and macular volume in PD group were significantly reduced than those in control group (t= −2.546, −3.410;P=0.012, 0.001). There was no difference of CFT (t= −0.463,P=0.644) and the thickness of circumpapillary (t= −1.645,P=0.102), superior (t= −0.775,P=0.439), inferior (t=−1.844,P=0.067), nasal (t= −0.344,P=0.732) and temporal (t= −0.541,P=0.590) of RNFL between two groups. The retinal thickness, macular volume, CFT and the thickness of circumpapillary, superior, inferior, nasal, temporal of RNFL had no relationship with age, disease duration and scores of Hoehn-Yahr and UPDRS Ⅲ in PD patients (P>0.05). Conclusions In PD patients, the retinal thickness and macular volume are decreased, however, the circumpapillary RNFL have no obvious alterations.
