BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to demonstrate the relationship between topographic reduction in macular ganglion cell complex (GCC) thickness as detected with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography and @entity227 caused by @entity63 . METHODS: This study was a retrospective review of all @entity1 who presented to our eye institution between January 2012 and July 2014 with @entity227 secondary to ischemic @entity130 . The @entity227 pattern and mean deviation were analyzed. Retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and macular GCC were both assessed with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. @entity1 with any ocular pathology that could affect these measurements were excluded. The topographic relationship of @entity227 to reduction in GCC was specifically analyzed. RESULTS: Nine @entity1 met the inclusion criteria. Their average age was 65 (57-73) years; eight were @entity1 and six had @entity1805 . The laterality of the @entity227 was used to assign an affected and unaffected side of analysis for RNFL and GCC layer thickness. A right @entity1805 meant that the nasal fibers of the right eye and temporal fibers of the left eye were assigned as the "affected side", and the temporal fibers of the right eye and nasal fibers of the left eye were assigned as "unaffected". There was no statistically significant difference between affected and unaffected RNFL. However, there was a significant difference in GCC layer reduction between the affected and unaffected sides (P=0.029). CONCLUSION: There is evidence of retrograde trans-synaptic @entity2479 cell loss in @entity1 with @entity1805 from cortical @entity227 . This relationship is reflected in thinning of the GCC and maintains the topographic relationship of the @entity227 .
