Evaluation of the diagnostic and differential diagnostic value of SOCT and microperimetry methods in patients with visual disturbances due to multiple sclerosis by M. S. Krivosheeva, E. E. Ioyleva

“…It was found that if the RNFL was 62 microns or less, the GCL-S + IPL  was 52 microns or less (in the inferior segment it was 50 microns or less, and in the upper segment it was 51 microns or less) then, with a sensitivity of 100 % and a specificity of 87.5–93 %, it is an evidence of the atrophy of the optic nerve.Conclusion: average retinal photosensitivity within 6º from the center of the visual field, RNFL thickness,  thickness GCL-S + IPL, including that in the superior, superior temporal and inferior segments can be considered as diagnostically significant values in OH inflammatory-related and demyelinating OH and the development of ONA due to MS.…”
