The optic nerve damage in moderate glaucoma was predominantly located in only one hemisphere; the other hemisphere was un- or minimally affected on optical coherence tomography and automated perimetry and is referred to as early glaucoma. The structure of RNFL bundles and gain (%) in RNFL images with mean pixel values between 15 and 35 were analyzed. Imaging was performed one degree away from the optic disc margin at two and four cardinal clock positions in the glaucoma and control groups, respectively. The field of view was 1.3\u00b0 at 2.3 m resolution. We studied one eye per participant.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      There were 11 glaucoma patients and 7 healthy controls.

In patients with moderate and severe glaucoma, imaging was successful only at 46% of the locations; RNFL bundles were not discernible, and RNFL reflectivity did not differ from those with early glaucoma (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; 0.11).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The recorded gain (%) of RNFL images obtained using AOSLO could be an objective indicator of early glaucoma.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/ijo.ijo_1044_21","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,8,4]],"date-time":"2022-08-04T11:45:11Z","timestamp":1659613511000},"page":"2877-2882","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy may support early diagnosis of glaucoma"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"70","author":[{"given":"Nikhil S","family":"Choudhari","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"V S T Glaucoma Center, Dr. Kallam Anji Reddy Campus, L.
