| Popis: | Introduction Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has become an essential tool in paediatric ophthalmology. However, none of the currently available OCT devices include any kind of normative database for the paediatric population, which can lead to important interpretation errors. Objective To review the paediatric OCT normative databases. Material and methods The applications and implications of the use of paediatric OCT normative databases are reviewed. Results The paediatric normative databases that have been published so far in scientific literature with different OCT devices for Spanish and European population are presented. Conclusions The knowledge and interpretation of paediatric OCT normative databases in our daily clinical practice is crucial in order for the correct interpretation of OCT thickness maps. |
