Parapapillary gamma zone associated with increased peripapillary scleral bowing: the Beijing Eye Study 2011

Conclusions
A more backward bowing of the PPS was linearly and spatially associated with the presence, size and extent of gamma zone. It suggested that the BM and the sclera were closely related in participating the biomechanical behaviour of the ONH.
