ABSTRACT

Objective: To identitify the relationship between ganglion cell complex detected by spectral domian optical coherence tomography and visual function in patients suffering from nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neurophathy.
Methodos: A prospective study was conducted between may of 2016 and august of 2018 with 11 patients with nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neurophathy in the Neuro-ophthalmology Service of "Ramón Pando Ferrer" Cuban Institute of Ophthalmology. Spectral Domian Optical Coherence Tomography was made at the initial consultation and a month later using the healthy eye of each patient as control.
Results: Age was between 43 and 69 years with a mean of 55 years. Initial best corrected visual acuity had a mean of 80 VAR and its mean was 83 VAR a month later. 63,6% of the patients suffered from high blood pression and 36,3% was diabetic. The mean thickness of the ganglion cell complex and the thickness by sectors was diminish in all the affected eyes compared with controls at the initial momento such as a month later.
Conclusions: There is a significant diminish of the mean thickness of the gangion cell complex in eyes affected by nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neurophathy. The correlation between the initial mean thickness of the gangion cell complex in eyes affected by nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neurophathy and the final best corrected visual acuity was statistical significantly.
