Abstract
Case reportTwo clinical cases are presented of two family relatives newly diagnosed with Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) and G11778A mutation analysis by optical coherence tomography (Cirrus HD-OCT, Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, California, USA) layer peripapillary fibers retina (RNFL) and ganglion cell and internal plexiform layers (GCL/IPL) using macular segmentation. DiscussionThe analysis of the macula by OCT segmentation (version 6.0 Cirrus OCT) allows the GCL/IPL to be evaluated without the interindividual variability of peripapillary RNFL distribution or the presence of edema of the optic disk. When an analysis of the peripapillary RNFL, it does not provide information on this neuronal damage, which itself is evidence in the study of GCL/IPL.
