Overview

Cross-sectional study evaluates retinal nerve fiber layer in children, highlighting the impact of gender and spherical equivalent.

Key Points

  • Mean retinal nerve fiber layer thickness for the right eye was 101.12 ± 10 and for the left eye was 100.2 ± 10.1.
  • Gender significantly affected retinal nerve fiber layer thickness in the right eye's superior and nasal quadrants (P=0.02, P=0.04).
  • Age showed no significant effect on retinal nerve fiber layer thickness, indicating stability across gender and age groups.
  • Data from this study can aid in establishing a standard pediatric database for future ocular assessments.
