ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Evaluation of the optic disc is important for the correct diagnosis and follow-up of optic neuropathies, especially glaucoma. The characteristics of the optic disc depend on various factors, including demographic and population aspects, and analysis of these characteristics may vary according to the methods used. The size and format of the neural rim along with the nerve fiber layer are important to the clinician's judgment regarding the susceptibility of the subject to develop glaucoma. In this study, we reviewed the literature to summarize the main methods and its characteristics in the evaluation of the optic nerve head.


RESUMO A avaliação do disco óptico é de suma importância para o diagnostico correto e acompanhamento de neuropatias ópticas, especialmente o glaucoma. Características do disco óptico dependem de uma grande variedade de fatores, incluindo aspectos demográficos e populacionais, e também podem variar de acordo com os métodos usados. Tamanho e formato da rima neurorretiniana junto com a camada de fibras nervosas são importantes ao julgamento clinico a respeito da susceptibilidade do paciente desenvolver glaucoma. Nesse estudo, nós revisamos a literatura para resumir os principais métodos e suas características para a avaliação da cabeça do nervo óptico.
