Purpose: Investigate the effects of myopia and glaucoma in the prelaminar neural canal and anterior lamina cribrosa using 1060-nm swept-source optical coherence tomography Design: Retrospective, cross-sectional study Methods: - Setting: Clinical practice - Patient or study population: 19 controls (38 eyes); 38 glaucomatous subjects (63 eyes). Inclusion criteria for glaucomatous subjects: i) optic disc neural rim loss; ii) peripapillary nerve fibre layer (NFL) loss on spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT); iii) glaucomatous visual field defect with an abnormal pattern standard deviation (P<.05); iv) stable SD-OCT, visual field, and optic disc clinical examination for 6 or more months. Inclusion criteria for control subjects: no evidence of retinal or optic nerve pathology. Exclusion criteria: i) retinal diseases or optic neuropathy other than primary open-angle glaucoma; ii) intraocular pressure ≤ 10 mmHg or ≥ 20 mmHg; iii) ocular media opacities; iv) any surgery-related complication deemed inappropriate for the study. - Intervention or observation procedures: Swept-source optical coherence tomography - Main Outcome Measure(s): Bruchs membrane opening (BMO) and anterior laminar insertion (ALI) dimension, prelaminar neural canal dimension, anterior lamina cribrosa surface (ALCS) depth Results: Glaucomatous eyes had more bowed and nasally rotated BMO and ALI, more horizontally skewed prelaminar neural canal, and deeper ALCS than the control eyes. Increased axial length was associated with a wider, longer, and more horizontally skewed neural canal, and decrease in the ALCS depth and curvature. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that glaucomatous posterior bowing or cupping of lamina cribrosa can be significantly confounded by the myopic expansion of the neural canal. This may be related to higher glaucoma risk associated with myopia from decreased compliance and increased susceptibility to IOP-related damage of LC being pulled taut.

AbstractSound evokes sub-nanoscale vibration within the sensory epithelium. The epithelium contains not only immotile cells but also contractile outer hair cells (OHCs) that actively shrink and elongate synchronously with the sound. However, the in vivo motion of OHCs has remained undetermined. The aim of this work is to perform high-resolution and -accuracy vibrometry in live guinea pigs with an SC-introduced spectral-domain optical coherence tomography system (SD-OCT). In this study, to reveal the effective contribution of SC source in the recording of the low reflective materials with the short total acquisition time, we compare the performances of the SC-introduced SD-OCT (SCSD-OCT) to that of the conventional SD-OCT. As inanimate comparison objects, we record a mirror, a piezo actuator, and glass windows. For the measurements in biological materials, we use in/ex vivo guinea pig cochleae. Our study achieved the optimization of a SD-OCT system for high-resolution in vivo vibrometry in the cochlear sensory epithelium, termed the organ of Corti, in mammalian cochlea. By introducing a supercontinuum (SC) light source and reducing the total acquisition time, we improve the axial resolution and overcome the difficulty in recording the low reflective material in the presence of biological noise. The high power of the SC source enables the system to achieve a spatial resolution of 1.72 ± 0.00 μm on a mirror and reducing the total acquisition time contributes to the high spatial accuracy of sub-nanoscale vibrometry. Our findings reveal the vibrations at the apical/basal region of OHCs and the extracellular matrix, basilar membrane.
