To determine glaucoma-discriminating abilities of macular and circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (cpRNFL) thickness measurements of wide scan (12X9mm) using swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) compared to measurements of standard macula and disc scans (6 X 6 mm). This retrospec...
