| Abstract | Background To compare structural and vascular parameters between advanced pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PXG) and primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Methods One hundred and six eyes of 81 patients were enrolled in this cross-sectional study. All patients underwent complete ophthalmic examination and measurement of the thickness of the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and ganglion cell complex (GCC). The vessel densities (VD) in the peripapillary and macular area were also determined using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). A linear mixed model was used for the comparison of the structural and vascular parameters between groups with adjustment for type of glaucoma, age, sex, intraocular pressure (IOP), and mean deviation (MD) of the visual field C24-2. Results The patients in the PXG group were significantly older (68.06 ± 10.6 vs. 61.24 ± 15.23, p = 0.01) and had worse MD in the visual field C24-2 (-24.83 ± 6.18 vs. -22.37 ± 5.94, p = 0.04). Sex and IOP were comparable between groups (p > 0.05). Perippaillry RNFL and GCC thickness were not different between groups (p > 0.05). The PXG eyes showed lower VD in the average peripapillary area (32.67 ± 7.78 vs. 37.75 ± 8.87, p = 0.027) and nasal (37.45 ± 9.74 vs. 42.15 ± 7.36, p = 0.026) and inferior (38.09 ± 8.27 vs. 42.71 ± 9.13, p = 0.041) quadrants of parafovea. Conclusion The advanced PXG and POAG eyes have comparable structural defects in the peripapillary and inner macula while the PXG eyes may have more vascular deterioration, especially in the macula. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
