Evaluation of Heredity as a Determinant of Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Thickness as Measured by Optical Coherence Tomography

24 Jun 2003

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: To study to what extent genetic factors determine the retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) in healthy subjects. METHODS: In vivo peripapillary optical coherence tomography (OCT), clinical examination, lens fluorescence, and fundus photography were performed on both eyes of 25 monozygotic and 25 dizygotic same-sex pairs of twins. The cross-sectional study included twins aged from 20 to 45 years...
