Retinal Nerve Fiber Structure versus Visual Field Function in Patients with Ischemic Optic Neuropathy

The relationship between a structure (OCT RNFL thickness) and function (SAP sensitivity loss) is the same for patients with AION and glaucoma and can be approximated by a simple linear model. The model may provide a framework for identifying those patients with ganglion cell axons that are malfunctioning but are alive.
