Optical coherence tomography retinal ganglion cell complex analysis for the detection of early chiasmal compression

ConclusionsThese patients show that OCT-GCC analysis is more sensitive than visual field testing with standard automated perimetry in the detection of compressive chiasmopathy or optic neuropathy. These cases and previous studies suggest that OCT-GCC analysis may be used in addition to visual field testing to evaluate patients with lesions compressing the chiasm.
