Computerized image analysis of the optic nerve head in Neuro-Ophthalmology

Abstract

The optic disc analyser has three functions. It measures the optic cup size, nerve head color and optic nerve topography. The latter two functions are useful in Neuro-Ophthalmology. The authors have selected cases of progressive optic atrophy, pseudo and true edema of the disc to illustrate the analyser's application to neuro-ophthalmologic cases.
