Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) must accurately identify and measure the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) thickness to improve repeatability reproducibility, reduce measurement errors. Because Weiss ring can be located in front of optic disc, we hypothesized that it may affect pRNFL measurements obtained using SD-OCT. We retrospectively reviewed medical records patients with (group W) without N) ring, observed on OCT fundus image an RNFL map devised Optic...
