  • Title: [Up to date methods of optic nerve evaluation in patients with optic neuropathy of various etiology].
    Author: Sheremet NL, Ronzina IA, Galoian NS, Kazarian EE.
    Journal: Vestn Oftalmol; 2011; 127(2):15-8. PubMed ID: 21721265.
    Abstract:
    132 patients (188 eyes) with proven optic neuropathy of non-glaucomatous origin were examined using static perimetry, visual evoked potential (flash and pattern types), optic coherent tomography of papilla and thickness of peripapillary nerve fiber layer. Sensitivity/ specificity of methods for identification of optic nerve diseases in acute stage were 92/75%, 92/84%, 90/92% respectively. Combination of these three methods let us identify optic neuropathy in 100% of cases, including latent forms.
