Klin Monatsbl Augenheilkd 2003; 220:545-550. In the region of peripapillary atrophy, fundus autofluorescence is increased as a sign of increased lipofuscin accumulation. Fundus autofluorescence in the peripapillary region can be significantly larger in ocular hypertensive eyes than in normal eyes, and can be larger in eyes with glaucomatous visual field defects than in ocular hypertensive eyes.
