The purpose of this study is to analyze and compare pediatric normative data for the retinal nerve fiber layer of Romanian children using two different spectral domain optical coherence tomographs. Due to different scanning speeds and axial and transverse resolution, the results of the measurements of scans cannot be transposed. A total of 140 healthy children aged 4 to 18 were enrolled in the study. Overall, 140 eyes were scanned with a Spectralis SD-OCT (Heidelberg Technology), and the other 140 eyes were imaged with a Copernicus REVO SOCT (Optopol Technology (Zawiercie, Poland)). The mean global RNFL thickness and average RNFL thickness for the four quadrants were measured and compared. The average peripapillary RNFL thickness measured with the Spectralis was 104.03 ± 11.42 (range 81 to 126 µm), while the one measured with the Revo 80 was 127.05 ± 15.6 (range 111.43–158.28). The RNFL thickness measurements taken with the Spectralis in the superior, inferior, nasal, and temporal quadrants were 132 ±19.1, 133.5 ± 21.77, 74 ± 16.48, and 73 ± 11.95 µm, respectively, while those taken with the Revo 80 were 144.44 ± 9.25, 144.86 ±23.12, 96.49 ± 19.41, and 77 ± 11.4 µm, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that the average RNFL thickness was not influenced by gender or eye laterality and was negatively correlated with age when we used the Spectralis device. This study provides normative data for SD-OCT peripapillary RNFL in healthy Romanian children for two different tomographs. These data help the clinician evaluate and interpret the results of optical coherence tomography for a child, taking into consideration all the technical and individual parameters.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to estimate and compare the differences in ocular biometric measurements (OBMs), central macular thickness (CMT), and retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) between children with refractive errors and those with emmetropia. Methods: A cross-sectional observational study of 205 children (334 eyes) aged between six and 18 years consisting of four groups (emmetropia, hypermetropia, myopia, and astigmatism) was carried out. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), a detailed ocular examination, OBMs, spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD OCT) for RNFLT and CMT in both eyes were evaluated for each child. Results: Mean age of 205 children was 12.4 ± 3.2 years. 55.6% ( n = 114) were girls and 44.4% ( n = 91) were boys. There was a significant difference between the four groups for the parameters spherical equivalent (SE), keratometer readings K1and K2, axial length (AL), anterior chamber depth (ACD), vitreous chamber depth (VCD) and lens thickness (LT) ( P < 0.0001). The mean central corneal thickness (CCT) was not significantly different between the four groups ( P = 0.076). The mean RNFLT was thinner in the myopic group compared with the emmetropic group ( P = 0.0048) There was no significant difference in the mean CMT across the four groups ( P = 0.458). Conclusion: The data obtained are helpful in providing the normative as well as a comparative database on OBMs, RNFLT and CMT of the pediatric population. This also facilitates evaluation of RNFLT and CMT measurements in children with amblyopia, optic neuropathies, glaucoma, macular and retinal diseases.
