Test Procedure

Use this test to estimate the optic nerve diameter (in whichever direction) of the Heidelberg Spectralis optic nerve report. This report must show an image of the optic nerve head and the green peripapillary ring

  1. Obtain the Heidelberg Spectralis OCT optic nerve report
  2. Measure with a millimeter ruler the diameter of the green ring on the report
  3. Measure the diameter of the optic nerve on the report
