Optic nerve head-retinal nerve fiber layer analysis with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography of ethambutol-induced ocular toxicity in patients on a daily regime of anti-tubercular therapy

Optic nerve head-retinal nerve fiber layer analysis with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography of ethambutol-induced ocular toxicity in patients on a daily regime of anti-tubercular therapy

Purpose: This study aims to analyze the clinical profile of patients who presented with visual symptoms after the onset of anti-tubercular therapy (ATT) on daily fixed drug combination and to quantify optic nerve damage in these patients using optical coherence tomography as an objective tool.
