Fluorescein angiography of the optic nerve head in the elderly
1Clinica Oculistica, Universita di Padova, Italy.
Abstract:
Interpretation of fluorescein angiography of the optic nerve head is somewhat difficult due to its peculiar vasculature. Three early phases can commonly be observed: 1) retrolaminar and prelaminar filling; 2) prelaminar filling; 3) superficial capillary filling. The authors describe the characteristics of the fluorescein angiography of norman optic nerve hed in the elderly. The interpretation of these signs is also discussed.
