Abstract

Purpose To create a diagnostic algorithm by modeling the normal variability of rim area (measured by Heidelberg Retina Tomography) using linear regression in normal elderly subjects.Methods Multiple linear regression was performed between log rim area and disc area, age, and sex in 712 normal elderl...
