Indian Journal of Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology (IJCEO) is open access, a peer-reviewed medical journal, published quarterly, online, and in print, by the Innovative Education and Scientific Research Foundation (IESRF) since 2015. To fulfil our aim of rapid dissemination of knowledge, we publish articles ‘Ahead of Print’ on acceptance. In addition, the journal allows free access (Open Access) to its content, which is likely to attract more readers and citations of articles published in IJCEO.

Abstract
Aim and Objective: To evaluate the correlation between optic disc and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) parameters of SD OCT scan of optic disc, and, visual field indices of Humphrey visual field analyzer.
Materials and Methods: This is a prospective, cross-sectional study of 47 patients who are glaucoma suspects. They have been screened for glaucoma by comprehensive ophthalmic examination including visual field testing by automated perimetry and optic nerve head and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness changes assessment by optical coherence tomography.
Results: Mean age of the glaucoma suspects was 54.35 ± 10.6 years. Women were having higher (58.7%) mean age as compared to men (41.3%). Mean IOP in glaucoma suspects was 17.97 mmHg. The mean CD ratio was measured as 0.66 ± 0.11 and with significant negative correlation between the mean MD and CD ratio values (p<0>
Conclusion: Spectral domain OCT, when used in combination with automated perimetry helps in early diagnosis of glaucoma.SD OCT of Optic disc alone can detect changes of RNFL in patients with normal discs and visual fields. Optic Disc OCT plays a vital role in diagnosing preperimetric glaucoma patients.
Keywords: SDOCT, RNFL thickness, Automated perimetry.
