PURPOSE: To assess the correlation between optic nerve head measurements generated by Fourier-domain (FD) and swept-source (SS) optical coherence tomography (OCT) both in healthy Caucasian subjects and patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a cross-sectional study of the right eyes of 118 subjects. In each participant, the measurements of disc area, cup to disc ratio (CDR), vertical cup to disc ratio (VCDR), rim area and rim volume were performed consecutively by FD-OCT and then SS-OCT. Participant age, gender and spherical equivalent were also recorded. Agreement between the two devices was assessed through intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) and Bland-Altman plots. RESULTS: The study sample consisted of 95 healthy eyes and 23 eyes with glaucoma. Mean participant age was 48.6±20.0 years, 54.2% were female, and mean spherical equivalent was -1.6±3.0 diopters. FD-OCT and SS-OCT measurements were respectively: mean disc area 1.79±0.3 vs 1.83±0.3 mm2 (ICC=0.71), mean CDR 0.38±0.2 vs 0.33±0.2 (ICC=0.91), mean VCDR 0.58±0.2 vs 0.52±0.2 (ICC=0.92), mean rim area 1.05±0.4mm vs 1.03±0.5mm (ICC=0.29), and mean rim volume 0.14±0.11 vs 0.21±0.17mm (ICC=0.53). Good agreement between the devices was noted for rim area and rim volume in glaucoma subjects (ICC=0.76 and 0.68 respectively), while weak agreement was observed for these variables in healthy subjects (ICC≤0.50). CONCLUSIONS: The CDR and VCDR measurements provided by FD and SS OCT showed excellent agreement for the overall sample. When the devices were used for rim measurements, agreement was excellent only in the POAG patients.
