Generally peripapillary RNFL thickness is considered as an important variable associated with visual field defects in glaucoma patients. ANN identified parameters associated with posterior scleral deformations around optic disc induced by myopic change including PPA area, disc torsion degree, and disc-foveal angle as significant clinical variables for visual field damage in OAG with myopia.
