Figure 1. From: Detection of progressive macular thickness loss using optical coherence tomography in glaucoma suspect and glaucomatous eyes.

Right eye of a patient with normal-tension glaucoma demonstrates progressive glaucomatous visual field damage associated with progressive diffuse macular thickness loss. The top panel (baseline examination) demonstrates an average total macular thickness of 195.5 μm (left), advanced glaucomatous optic nerve head cupping with disc haemorrhage (arrow, middle) and inferior arcuate scotoma on standard automated perimetry (right). After 4 years of follow-up, the bottom panel demonstrates diffuse macular thickness loss with average total macular thickness of 165.13 μm (−7.6 μm/year), progressive optic atrophy, and progressive visual field loss (annual decline in visual field index, −4%).
