In a previous study it was shown that the asymmetry of rim area and disc area of fellow eyes expressed as a ratio (rim area to disc area asymmetry ratio [RADAAR]) was associated with the diagnosis of glaucoma in patients with highly asymmetric disease. Furthermore, this ratio was able to distinguish these patients from groups of glaucoma suspects and subjects without glaucoma. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the RADAAR correlates with the diagnosis and severity of glaucoma in a large glaucomatous population.
