In glaucomatous eyes, either GCC or RNFL parameters significantly correlated with retinal mean sensitivity, offering a structure-functional relationship.

The ganglion cell complex (GCC) is defined as the three innermost retinal layers: the nerve fiber layer, the ganglion cell layer, and the inner plexiform layer. 7 Tan and colleagues7 suggested that glaucoma likely preferentially affects these layers, rather than all macular layers, because they contain the axons, cell bodies, and dendrites of ...

The analysis of GCC parameters according to different possible situations, with a focus on glaucomatous eyes, is reported. The OCT is a noninvasive imaging method that has been widely used for the evaluation of structural abnormalities that are affecting the optic nerve head, retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) of the peripapillary region and the ...

2020年1月31日 · The macular ganglion cell complex (GCC), available in commercial Fourier-domain optical coherence tomography, allows the quantification of the innermost retinal layers that are potentially involved in the glaucomatous damage, including the retinal nerve fiber (RNFL), ganglion cell and inner plexiform layers.

2015年5月29日 · To evaluate ganglion cell complex (GCC) thickness with spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) in eyes with nonexudative age-related macular degeneration (NEAMD). Forty-seven...

Our study found GCC superior to pRNFL in determining eyes with early glaucoma. Single baseline measurements of GCC layer in glaucomatous and nonglaucomatous eyes also show significant difference (p < 0.001 for superior, inferior and total GCC values in normal eyes compared to glaucomatous eyes).

2022年2月16日 · To test the hypothesis that macular ganglion cell layer (GCL) measurements detect early glaucoma with higher accuracy than ganglion cell/inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) thickness measurements. Cross-sectional study. The first cohort included 58 glaucomatous eyes with visual field mean deviation (MD) ≥ –6 dB and 125 normal eyes.

2023年1月11日 · The aim of this review is to analyze the correlations between the changes in the ganglion cell complex (GCC) and the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) on optical coherence tomography in different possible situations, especially in eyes with glaucoma.

2018年1月18日 · Retinal ganglion cells process visual information that begins as light entering the eye and transmit it to the brain via their axons, which are long fibers that make up the optic nerve. There are over a million retinal ganglion cells in the human retina, and they allow you to see as they send the image to your brain.

Ganglion cells begin at the inner plexiform layer (IPL) where they synapse with the bipolar and amacrine cells of the middle retina. Their cell bodies (soma) make up the ganglion cell layer (GCL) of the inner retina, and the ganglion cell axons …
