Quantitative assessment of depolarization by the retinal pigment epithelium in healthy and glaucoma subjects measured over a large field of view.
We present measurements of depolarization introduced by the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) over a 45° field of view using polarization sensitive optical coherence tomography. A detailed spatial distribution analysis of depolarization caused by the RPE is presented in a total of 153 subjects includ...

description | We present measurements of depolarization introduced by the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) over a 45° field of view using polarization sensitive optical coherence tomography. A detailed spatial distribution analysis of depolarization caused by the RPE is presented in a total of 153 subjects including both healthy and diseased eyes. Age and sex related differences in the depolarizing character of the RPE are investigated. |
