Abstract

The medical screening included 375 patients (680 eyes): Group 1 - patients with POAG with myopia; Group 2 - Patients with POAG associated with emmetropia and hyperopia; Group 3 - patients with myopia; Group 4 - patients with hyperopia. All the patients underwent laser polarimetry. The frequency and location of RNFL defects was analyzed. The patients with POAG observed RNFL defects significantly more often than patients without the disease. The patients of Group 1 had had lesions in the upper RNFL part before and to a greater extent, the patients of Group 2 - the lower part of RNFL.
