The Correlation Between Pupil Size and Retinal Nerve Fibers Changes in Pseudoexfoliation Syndrome.
Sponsor: Assiut University
Summary
To study the possible correlation between pupillary diameter before and after dilation with intraocular pressure, lens stability and glaucomatous damage (represented by optic disc changes using cup to disc ratio and OCT changes in retinal nerve fiber layer and ganglion cell complex) in each eye of the same patient with PEX.

optical coherence tomography
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive imaging test . It uses light waves to take cross-section pictures of the retina . With OCT, the ophthalmologist can see each of the retina's distinctive layers, and so we can use it to study the changes in pseudoexfoliation syndrome.
