Two years later, patient underwent a second retinographic control showing 10/10 glaucomatous cupping in her right eye. This was associated to loss of myelinated nerve fibers. Results/conclusions: Etiology, characteristics, associations and other causes of loss of myelinated retinal nerve fibers in chronic glaucoma are reviewed. This is the second of two photograph documented cases where loss of myelinated nerve fibers is associated to an open angle primary glaucoma. |
