Relationship Between Position of Peak Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness and Retinal Arteries on Sectoral Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness

Abstract

The temporal RNFL thickness increased as the superior and inferior RNFL peaks, and retinal arteries shifted toward the fovea, whereas an inverse relationship was observed for the inferior and supranasal areas. The sectoral RNFL thickness is correlated better with the peak and artery angles than the axial length.
