To characterize juxtapapillary (JP) and non-JP microvasculature dropout in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) and to compare their rate of retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thinning. Retrospective, cohort study. A total of 141 eyes with POAG with ≥ 4 serial optical coherence tomography (OCT) images after initial OCT angiography (OCT-A) for ≥ 2 years were included. Based on OCT-A imaging, the three groups were matched by age and visual field mean deviation: JP group (parapapillary deep-layer microvasculature dropout in contact with the optic disc boundary, n=47), non-JP group (dropout not reaching the optic disc boundary, n=47), and no-dropout group (lacking the dropout, n=47). RNFL thinning rate was compared among the three groups. The rate of RNFL thinning tended to be fastest in the JP group followed by the non-JP group and no-dropout group in all areas except the temporal and nasal sectors. Post hoc analysis revealed that the JP group had significantly faster RNFL thinning than did the no-dropout group in the global area and the inferotemporal and inferonasal sectors (P < 0.05). When subgroup analysis was performed for subjects in which the main sector of dropout was the inferotemporal sector, the JP group had significantly faster RNFL thinning than the other two groups in the corresponding inferotemporal sector (P < 0.001). Eyes with JP microvasculature dropout showed faster RNFL thinning than eyes without dropout. These findings suggest that deep-layer microvasculature dropout, especially in contact with the optic disc boundary, is associated with rapid glaucoma progression.
