Popis: | Purpose To determine the relationship between peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness in Parkinson disease (PD) with the severity of this neurological disorder and to define a simple biomarker to predict clinical severity. Methods Peripapillary RNFL thickness was measured in 102 eyes from 52 PD patients by using optical coherence tomography (OCT) and compared with 97 eyes from 50 age-matched healthy controls. The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) total score was used and responses in the ON medication state were measured. Results PD patients showed a statistically significant decrease in average peripapillary RNFL thickness compared with control eyes (p |
