Retinal Ganglion Cell Atrophy in Homonymous Hemianopia due to Acquired Occipital Lesions Observed Using Cirrus High-Definition-OCT

Figure 4

Case 1. (a) GCL+IPL thinning was observed in the temporal retina of the RE and the nasal retina of the LE. An abnormal area (yellow: outside of the 95% normal limit, red: outside of the 99% normal limit) in the deviation map was present that corresponded to the hemianopic visual field defects. (b) Cirrus HD-OCT images of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) around the optic disc. In the cpRNFL thickness map, T indicates temporal; S, superior; N, nasal; I, inferior. A, the 3- and 7-clock-hour retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thicknesses were on the borderline in the RNFL clock-hour sector map for the left eye. The deviation map of the cpRNFL thickness was significantly thinner in the superior and inferior regions of the right eye and the temporal and inferior regions of the left eye compared to normative database values.
