Bruch Membrane Opening Detection Accuracy in Healthy Eyes and Eyes With Glaucoma With and Without Axial High Myopia in an American and Korean Cohort.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To determine the predictors of Bruch membrane opening (BMO) location accuracy and the visibility of the BMO location in glaucoma and healthy individuals with and without axial high myopia.

Design

Cross-sectional study.

Methods

Healthy eyes and eyes with glaucoma from an American study and a Korean clinic population were classified into 2 groups: those with no axial high myopia (axial length [AL] <26 mm) and those with axial high myopia (AL ≥26 mm). The accuracy of the automated BMO location on optic nerve head Spectralis optical coherence tomography radial scans was assessed by expert reviewers.

Results

Four hundred thirty-eight non-highly myopic eyes (263 subjects) and 113 highly myopic eyes (81 subjects) were included. In healthy eyes with and without
