PROJECT SUMMARY Glaucoma is a chronic, progressive, incurable disease that affects over 2 million individuals in the United States alone and over 60 million worldwide. Sensitive detection of early glaucoma damage is not only essential for vision preservation, but also can facilitate new neuroprotective therapy developments. In this proposal, we focus on two novel imaging markers enabled by visible light optical coherence tomography (VIS-OCT), namely the reflectance spectral marker from retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and macular oxygen consumption. We showed in our recent cross-sectional clinical study that peripapillary RNFL reflectance spectral marker and arteriovenous oxygen saturation difference in the macular region better separated early stage of glaucoma suspect/pre- perimetric glaucoma eyes from normal ones than circumpapillary RNFL and macular ganglion cell complex (GCC) thickness. These promising results lead to three specific goals in the project. First, we will develop a second- generation dual channel VIS-OCT device to improve the resolution, total imaging range, and image quality to achieve near shot-noise limit performance. Second, we propose to characterize the macular oxygen consumption by combining blood oxygen saturation and flow and correlated with glaucoma severity. Macular region contains >30% of total RGCs in retina and is involved in early events in glaucoma. The macular visual damage impacts the quality of life the most since it is at the center of our vision. For the first time, we will provide quantitative assessment of macular oxygen consumption in a spectrum of glaucoma severity and shed light in the pathological role of vascular function in the early-stage glaucoma. Finally, we propose a prospective study to correlate VIS-OCT imaging markers, including RNFL reflectance spectral markers and macular oxygen markers, with the glaucoma worsening. We will evaluate whether VIS-OCT markers can detect the early damages proceeding to vision functional loss at a later point. IMPACT ON PUBLIC HEALTH: The successful completion of this program will rigorously evaluate the clinical performances of new VIS-OCT markers for early glaucoma detection, which is highly impactful in clinical care and blindness prevention.

项目摘要 青光眼是一种慢性，进步，无法治愈的疾病，在美国影响超过200万人 独自一人，全球超过6000万。对早期青光眼损伤的敏感检测不仅对 视力保存，但也可以促进新的神经保护疗法的发展。在此提案中，我们集中于 在两个新颖的成像标记中，可见光光学相干断层扫描（Vis-OCT）启用了 来自视网膜神经纤维层（RNFL）和黄斑氧的反射光谱标记。我们展示了 在我们最近的横断面临床研究中 黄斑区域的氧饱和度差异更好地分离了青光眼的早期阶段 来自正常眼睛的青光眼比电圆顶脂质RNFL和黄斑神经节细胞复合物（GCC） 厚度。这些有希望的结果导致了该项目的三个特定目标。首先，我们将开发第二个 生成双通道相对于OOCT设备，以提高分辨率，总成像范围和图像质量 达到接近射击限制性能。其次，我们建议表征黄斑氧 通过将血氧饱和度和流量结合在一起，并与青光眼的严重程度相关。黄斑 区域包含视网膜中总RGC的30％，并参与青光眼的早期事件。黄斑视觉 损害对生活质量的影响最大，因为它是我们愿景的中心。我们将第一次提供 在青光眼严重程度和散发光中，对黄斑氧消耗的定量评估 血管功能在早期青光眼中的病理作用。最后，我们提出了一项前瞻性研究 将相关成像标记物相关联，包括RNFL反射光谱标记和黄斑氧 标记，青光眼恶化。我们将评估相关标记是否可以早期检测到 稍后的损害将导致视力功能损失。对公共卫生的影响：成功 该程序的完成将严格评估新的Vis-OCT标记的临床表现 青光眼检测，这在预防临床护理和失明方面具有很高的影响。
