Retinal Fiber Layer Thickness in Children with Thalessemia Major and Iron Deficiency Anemia

Abstract

The study revealed that peripapillary RNFL is thinner in tha-major in all quadrants and in only the inferior quadrant in IDA. Thinning of the RNLF correlated with hemoglobin value and ferritin level, but not with number of transfusions and visual acuity.
