Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of blindness. Early glaucoma detection and reliable progression analysis may prevent loss of vision. A serious management of glaucoma is the basis of an individualized therapy and excellent patient care.

The detection and monitoring of glaucoma require a targeted combination of clinical observations and reliable examination results. Clinical expertise is always the key to an accurate glaucoma diagnosis.

Structural and functional examinations with Heidelberg Engineering products provide invaluable information to aide in the diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma.

Advanced glaucoma diagnosis demands advanced technology. A complete picture of glaucoma develops only if the diagnostic information fits together like the pieces of a puzzle.

We provide serious diagnostic power for glaucoma!Comprehensive glaucoma solutions from Heidelberg Engineering.

Validated DiagnosticsThe excellent diagnostic performance of the Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT) is well established. The HRT has been used worldwide over 20 years for the detection and management of glaucoma. Advanced algorithms like the Moorfields Regression Analysis (MRA) and the Glaucoma Probability Score (GPS) allow an objective assessment of structural glaucomatous damage. Objective structural parameters complement the 3D topographic profile of the optic nerve head and facilitate a comprehensive risk assessment of suspect glaucoma patients.

All relevant anatomic structures at a glance – optic nerve head (ONH) excavation, neuroretinal rim and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer

Weinreb 2010: Baseline GPS, MRA, and stereoparameters alone or when combined with baseline clinical and demographic factors can be used to predict the development of POAG end points in OHTS (Ocular Hypertensive Treatment Study) participants and are as effective as stereo photographs for estimating the risk of developing POAG in ocular hypertensive subjects1

Zangwill 2005: HRT MRA is the top predictive factor for glaucoma and can identify those patients at high risk for developing the disease2

Strouthidis 2010: In clinical practice, patients with both an abnormal MRA and an abnormal GPS classification at presentation should be followed closely as they have an increased risk of future visual field or HRT change3

Early Detection and Reliable Progression AnalysisThe Topographic Change Analysis (TCA) of the HRT is the best known and most evidence-based method for glaucoma management4. The Gold Standard for objective comprehensive structural analysis of the ONH is the key to an individualized approach to glaucoma diagnosis and treatment.

One Perimeter – Two MethodsThe visual field examination remains an essential part of glaucoma diagnosis and management, despite rapid developments in imaging technologies5. Heidelberg Engineering complements the Gold Standard of structural glaucoma diagnosis, the Heidelberg Retina Tomograph (HRT) with an innovative and reliable partner, the Heidelberg Edge Perimeter (HEP). The HEP offers two perimetric methods in one device.

Flicker-Defined-Form (FDF) Perimetry for early glaucoma detection in patients at risk and ocular hypertensive patients

The Gold Standard, White-on-White Perimetry (SAP) for continuous care of patients with manifest glaucoma

Unique Legacy Scale for a direct comparison with HFA examination results

The Functional Change Analysis FCA allows monitoring of signifi-cant functional changes over time

Structure and FunctionClinically, glaucomatous damage is typically diagnosed by combining structural and functional assess-ments. In particular, anatomical structural damage detected by Confocal Scanning Laser Ophthalmo-scopy (HRT) or Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) is compared to changes in the visual field (VF) sensitivity as measured by FDF Perimetry or SAP. Heidelberg Engineering combines datasets of HRT, SPECTRALIS and HEP in the common software platform HEYEX, and conjointly displays structure-function results on a single report.

PrecisionThe SPECTRALIS enables the precise measurement of the peri-papillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness. Comparing the measurement to a normative database allows a fast and reliable detection of local nerve fiber defects. The examination results are comprehensively documentedand summarized.

Precise measurement of retinal nerve fiber layer thickness

Evaluation of more than 1,500 data points on a single circle scan around the optic nerve head

Automatic comparison to an age-adjusted normativedatabase to classify a patient as being within or outside normal limits

ReproducibilityThe reliable detection of change is critical and defines glaucoma in suspect patients. With the SPECTRALIS changes in nerve fiber layer and retinal thickness as small as 1 µm can be identified.7,8 Structured reports enable a comprehensive documentation of change over time.

Innovative ConceptsThe Posterior Pole Asymmetry Analysis combines mapping of retinal thickness over the entireposterior pole with an innovative asymmetry analysis. The full geographic extend of nerve fiber and ganglion cell layer defects can be visualized. The combination of nerve fiber layer thickness and retinal thickness provides an even more robust parameter for glaucoma detection and monitoring of change over time.

Excellent Image QualityAnterior Chamber Angle assessment is typically used in a comprehensive glaucoma diagnosis to exclude Angle Closure Glaucoma. The SPECTRALIS Anterior Segment Module offers image acquisition of the Cornea and the Sclera. Moreover, both anterior chamber angles can be visualized in a single SD-OCT scan for an efficient glaucoma diagnosis.
