Evaluation of Lamina Cribrosa by Using Enhanced Depth Imaging Optical Coherence Tomography in Ocular Sarcoidosis during Quiescent Phase

This study aimed to evaluate changes in the LC and anterior LC depth (ALCD) in patients with OS. METHODS Forty-eight eyes of 26 patients with OS who received the treatment of panuveitis and were in the quiescent phase for at least 6 months were included in the study. Thirty healthy subjects' randomly selected eyes were selected as a control group. Eyes with OS were divided into two subgroups according to the presence (OS eyes with glaucoma [OSWG], n = 23) or absence of glaucoma (OS eyes without glaucoma [OSWOG], n = 25). The LC thickness, ALCD, and peripapillary choroidal thickness were measured using enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography in eyes with OS and in controls. RESULTS The mean LC thickness was found significantly thinner in both OSWG and OSWOG eyes compared with the healthy controls (P
