Total retinal thickness is an important factor in evaluating diabetic retinal neurodegeneration
Although many factors were significantly associated with mRNFL and GC-IPL thickness in participants with diabetes, they accounted for a fraction of the variation in the thickness of both layers. TRT explained most of the variation in these measurements, hence accounting for TRT is needed when using these metrics to evaluate DRN.
