Murugacz et al 28 은근시가심해질수록중심소와의망막두께가감소한다고주장하였고, 본연구에서는이러한굴절이상에대한영향을최소화하기위해 3.0D에서 +3.0D 사이의굴절이상을가지는경우만대상에포함시켰다. 또한, 동공의크기가빛간섭단층촬영상의결과에영향을줄수있기때문에모든대상자에대하여산동상태로검사를진행하였다. 정상인에서연령에따라황반망막두께의차이가있다는보고가있으며, 본연구는나이에따른변화요인을최소화하기위해대상연령을 50세이상으로제한하였다. 또한, 개방각을가진경우만을대상으로하였기때문에폐쇄각녹내장환자에서녹내장의진행정도와황반망막두께의관련성을이해하는데는무리가있으나, 시신경및시야변화에미치는영향은큰차이가없을것으로생각되며어느정도의결과에대한추정은가능할것이다. 그리고안압의절대값, 고안압이지속된기간등은본연구에서반영되지않았기때문에, 안압이황반망막에미치는영향에대해서는앞으로보완해서연구해야할점으로생각된다. 또한, 황반망막과시신경유두주위망막신경섬유층, 그리고시야변화등의관련성에대하여더많은환자들을대상으로하는추가적인연구가필요할것으로생각된다. 본연구에서황반망막도시신경유두주위망막신경섬유 232

7 - 정원도외 : 황반망막두께와녹내장성시야변화 - 층과같이개방각녹내장이진행함에따라두께가유의하게감소되는것을관찰할수있었다. 황반망막두께의변화는개방각녹내장의조기진단에일부기여할수있을것으로생각되며, 무엇보다녹내장의진행정도에따른시기능손상정도를반영하는지표로서의역할을할것이다. 그리고고안압증및시야결손전녹내장군에서시신경유두주위망막신경섬유층의두께와함께비교분석함으로써앞으로의경과를관찰하는데도움을주고, 개방각녹내장환자의상태를좀더종합적으로이해하는데도움을줄것으로기대한다. 참고문헌 1) Quigley HA, Addicks EM, Green WR.

Methods: Forty normal eyes of 24 subjects, 30 ocular hypertension eyes of 15 patients, 30 pre-perimetric glaucoma eyes of 18 patients and 90 open angle glaucoma eyes of 59 patients. The macularand peripapillary RNFL thickness were measured by the optical coherence tomography (Stratus OCT TM model 3000, Carl Zeiss Meditec) and visual field tests were performed by the Humphrey's automated perimetry. Results: There was a significant decrease of both the macular (p<0.05) and peripapillary RNFL thickness (p<0.001) in the open angle glaucoma group compared with the normal group. In 190 eyes, statistically significant positive relationship was demonstrated between mean deviation (MD) and all areas of peripapillary RNFL thickness (p<0.001) as well as between MD and all areas of macular thickness except the fovea, central ring (p<0.01). Conclusions: The macular and peripapillary RNFL thickness were significantly decreased and the findings indicated a significant association with the visual field change in open angle glaucoma eyes.
