Retinal Nerve Fibre Layer Thickness, Maküler Thickness and Macular Volume in Children With Intellectual Disability

This study suggests that macular thickness are reduced in ID patients but show no statistically significant changes in the RNFL. Lower macular thickness may potentially be linked to the brain abnormalities seen in ID, given the shared developmental origin of the retina and central nervous system. Further studies are needed to determine the potential application of OCT as a tool for diagnosing and monitoring the progression of this disease.
