Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness in Children: The Ural Children Eye Study
In this ethnically mixed school children population from Russia, maternal smoking during pregnancy and birth weight lower by 250g decreased RNFLT by 8.5 µm and 5.0 µm, respectively. A thinner RNFLT correlated with worse cognitive scores and school marks. After adjusting for axial length, RNFLT increased with longer axial length.
