The new Cirrus HD-OCT software was used to measure the thickness of ganglion cell and inner plexiform layers (GCIPL) in macular region in 56 patients (56 eyes) with early-stage primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and 53 healthy controls (53 eyes). The diagnostic value of the best parameters of GCIPL for POAG detection was insignificantly lower as compared to the best parameters of the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer and optic nerve head.
