Abstract

BMO-MRW is a new SOCT parameter that has been introduced in recent years in the diagnosis of glaucomatous damage to optic retinal nerve fibers on the optic disc.


The aim of this study is to compare the sensitivity of this method with other methods used to evaluation of the retinal nerve fibres damage in patients with juvenile glaucoma.


The study was conducted in 20 patients with juvenile glaucoma, aged 5–16 years. In all of them, the degree of retinal nerve fibers damage was measured using BMO-MRW, GCC, ONH and RNFL methods. The examinations were  performed every 3 months during a 1.5-year follow-up of these patients.


The results of these studies indicate that the most sensitive method of the degree of retinal nerve fibers damage in juvenile glaucoma is GCC and BMO-MRW, the less sensitive RNFL and at least sensitive is the ONH method.
