Effect of refractive error on optic disc measured by spectral domain optical coherence Tomography (SD-OCT) / Nur Zafirah Mohamad Radzai
Measurement of optic disc plays an important role in evaluation of optic disc nerve disease and anomalies. Accurate assessment of glaucomatous disc is very much dependent on clinical judgment of the cup-to-disc ratio. The size of the cup-to-disc ratio may be related to susceptibility to glaucoma dis...

Subsequently, the association between cup-to-disc ratio measurements and refractive error was investigated. A total of 72 children comprising 24 myopes, 15 hyperopes and 32 emmetropes aged between 6 to 15 years whom met the study criteria were recruited.

Data were tabulated and the association between cup-to-disc ratio measurements and refractive error was analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) and linear regression. Results showed that there was marginally significant difference in cup-disc ratio between myopia and hyperopia (P = 0.05). However, there was no significant different in cup-disc ratio between hyperopia and emmetropia (P = 0.62) and between myopia and emmetropia (P = 0.16) when multiple comparison was done.

Measurement of optic disc plays an important role in evaluation of optic disc nerve disease and anomalies.
