Abstract
The current study analyzed the morphologic features of macular ganglion cell complex (mGCC) thickness in optic pathway-related neuro-ophthalmic diseases by swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT). mGCC has the location diagnostic value similar to visual field, and the distribution of macular ganglion cells has accurate horizontal, vertical and quadrant characteristics. Specifically, prechiasmatic lesions showed atrophy and thinning of mGCC ring in single eye or mGCC atrophy in the upper and lower half of horizontal demarcation, chiasmatic lesions exhibited atrophy and thinning of mGCC in the half of bilateral nasal side demarcated by mid-vertical line, and retrochiasmatic lesions presented with atrophy of mGCC in the half of mid-vertical line demarcated or 1/4 quadrant. Therefore, the morphological characteristics of mGCC thickness are of value in the location diagnosis of optic path-related neuro-ophthalmic diseases.
