Abstract

Purpose: To described enhanced imaging for visualization of anatomic features and microstructures of Bergmeister papilla within the optic nerve in asymptomatic patient.
Primary measure is to see any change in the morphological characteristic in asymptomatic patient with Bergmeister papillae.
Secondary outcome measures is to see any effect on parameters of OCT in asymptomatic patient with Bergmeister papillae.
Materials and Methods: Carl Zeiss Cirrus HD 21 Line Raster OCT Model 5000 scanning protocol of the optic nerve and the optic disc cube 200×200 program obtains ONH images through a 3.46-mm diameter circle, and the algorithm automatically detects the circle and positions around the ONH and in the macular region were obtained in the both Eye. Fundus photo performed with Zeiss Fundus visucam 500.
Clinical examination was carried out with Carl Zeiss Cirrus HD 21 Line Raster OCT Model 5000 scanning protocol of the optic nerve and the optic disc cube 200×200 program obtains ONH images through a 3.46-mm diameter circle was obtained in the both eye.
Result: Zeiss Cirrus HD 21 Line Raster OCT showed hyperreflectivity overlying traction on the right optic nerve with normal Foveal Contour while in the left eye (OS) optic nerve and macula were normal. Fundoscopic examination showed in the right eye(OD), a overlying traction was identified in the optic nerve supero-nasal region, while in the left eye(OS), the fundus was normal.
Conclusion: Optical coherence tomography helps in identification of Bergmeister papilla with peripapillary vitreous thickening is beneficial in monitoring vitreo-retinal alterations that may cause future vision impairment.
 

Keywords: Optical coherence tomography, Bergmeister papilla.
