Horizontal and vertical optic disc rotation. The Beijing Eye Study

To measure the optic disc rotation around the vertical and horizontal disc axis and to evaluate associations with general and ocular parameters. Population-based study. In the Beijing Eye Study, 3468 participants (mean age:64.6±9.8 years; range:50-93 years) underwent an ophthalmological examination...

Description
Summary:To measure the optic disc rotation around the vertical and horizontal disc axis and to evaluate associations with general and ocular parameters. Population-based study. In the Beijing Eye Study, 3468 participants (mean age:64.6±9.8 years; range:50-93 years) underwent an ophthalmological examination which included spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) with enhanced depth imaging. Using the OCT images, we determined the amount of the rotation of the optic disc (defined as Bruch´s membrane opening (BMO)) around the vertical axis and horizontal axis. Optic disc rotation measurements were available for 3037 (87.6%) individuals. In multivariate analysis, larger optic disc rotation around the vertical axis (range:-4.90° to 41.0°) was associated (regression coefficient r:0.27) with high axial myopia (axial length ≥26.5 mm) (P
