Stratus OCT-3 measurements of macular and RNFL thickness and optic nerve topography vary with race, axial length, and age in healthy children. Normative pediatric OCT data should facilitate the use of OCT in assessing childhood glaucoma and other diseases.

Jan 18, 2017 · (A) RNFL OCT of the right eye of a child with a prior history of optic neuritis. Note the abnormal thinning of the inferior and temporal quadrants of the peripapillary RNFL, consistent with optic atrophy.

The recently introduced spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT) provides measurements of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and macula with greatly improved image acquisition speed and image resolution up to 5 μm . This is particularly helpful when applying this technology in …

Recently, Turk et al. used the Spectralis SD-OCT to assess macular thickness, macular volume, and RNFL thickness in a cohort of 107 6-16 year old Turkish children. 3 We want to expand upon this study in two ways, 1) we want to compile a normative database of North American children, including children of more diverse racial and ethnic ...

Jan 15, 2024 · Our study aimed to assess the peripapillary RNFL thickness (RNFLT) with Optopol Copernicus REVO80® spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) amongst healthy children and its associations.

The purpose of this study is to collect normative pediatric values for OCT measurement of the macular thickness and volume, peripapillary RNFL thickness, and optic nerve head morphology, and to study the effects of age, race, axial length, and spherical equivalent on these values.

To determine the normative values of the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), macular thickness, and macular volume in healthy children using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and analyze the correlation of such values with age, refraction error, and biometric measurements.

This study demonstrates normative values of RNFL thickness and ONH parameters in a sample of Caucasian children from the general population.

Jul 8, 2005 · The purposes of this study are to report RNFL thickness values in normal children using OCT; to examine the variation in RNFL thickness as a function of age, refraction, and other factors; and to investigate the technical feasibility of obtaining OCT images in children.

Measuring peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness with spectral-domain optical coherence tomography provides an objective and reliable estimate of glaucomatous optic nerve damage. Glaucoma is generally described as a loss of retinal ganglion cell axons.
