Abstract
An enhanced understanding of the microcirculation and blood flow in glaucoma is needed. Definitive study has been impaired by lack of a quantitative and objective clinical method to measure human optic nerve and peripapillary choroidal blood flow. Through optical sectioning of the optic nerve head and peripapillary retina, confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy offers the potential for angiographic examination of small vessels, particularly at the level of the lamina cribrosa.
