| Abstract | PURPOSE: We evaluated the glaucoma detection ability of macular ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) thickness measured by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and compared it to peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and optic nerve head (ONH) parameters in myopic preperimetric glaucoma (PPG). METHODS: We analyzed 353 eyes, including 67 nonmyopic preperimetric glaucomatous eyes, 182 myopic healthy eyes, and 104 myopic preperimetric glaucomatous eyes. Myopic PPG detection abilities of the respective parameters were assessed by calculating the area under receiver operating characteristic (AUROC) curves. The myopic eyes were divided into two groups (a nonhighly myopic and a highly myopic group). The diagnostic performance was analyzed for each group independently, and differences between the two groups also were evaluated. RESULTS: The best parameter for discrimination of myopic PPG from myopic healthy eyes was inferotemporal macular GCIPL thickness. The AUROCs of this parameter were 0.752, 0.747, and 0.737 in the total myopic, nonhighly myopic, and highly myopic groups, respectively. These were significantly larger than the AUROCs of the other parameters, including average RNFL thickness, average GCIPL thickness, rim area, inferior RNFL thickness, and minimum GCIPL thickness (P = 0.021, 0.012, 0.016, 0.036, and 0.013, respectively). The inferotemporal macular GCIPL thickness showed no significant difference between nonhighly myopic and highly myopic groups. CONCLUSIONS: The inferotemporal macular GCIPL thickness was the best PPG-detection parameter for myopic eyes. Inferotemporal macular GCIPL thickness evaluation can be considered to be a useful means of diagnosing PPG in myopic eyes. |

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.
