Based on mathematical modeling, a method for a comprehensive assessment of the fundus elements is proposed. With the help of a computer, the average statistical indicators of the elements of the optic nerve disk in 240 people were calculated. Quantitative differences were revealed in groups of healthy individuals with glaucoma and with optic nerve atrophy. A correlation analysis of statistical data is recommended to clarify the pathogenesis of specific glaucomatous atrophy of the optic nerve.
