Abstract
- PURPOSE
To compare optic disc measurements between computer-aided morphometry and Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT). METHODS: For 59 patients with primary open-angle glaucoma and 9 subjects with ocular hypertension, measurements of the optic disc area and neuroretinal rim area were obtained using our computer-aided morphometric techniques and the HRT. RESULTS: The mean optic disc areas measured with the HRT was smaller than those with the computer-aided techniques (p=0.02). Rim area and rim area to disc area were significantly (p
