Early POAG with Focal Nerve Fiber Loss (OCT Circular Scan)

Early POAG with Focal Nerve Fiber Loss (OCT Circular Scan)
OCT: The Circular Scan showed a regular retinal nerve fiber curve. Only nasally superior we found a focal loss of the retinal nerve fiber thickness (arrow), which corresponds well with the localized peripherial visual field defect and the notch at 11h.
