Does Optic Nerve Head Surface Topography Change Prior to Loss of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness: A Test of the Site of Injury Hypothesis in Experimental Glaucoma

PURPOSE: To test the hypothesis that optic nerve head (ONH) deformation manifesting as changes in its mean surface height precedes thinning of the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) in experimental glaucoma (EG). METHODS: 68 rhesus macaque monkeys each had three or more baseline imaging...
