BACKGROUND/AIM: To evaluate the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness in @entity1 with @entity195 ( @entity195 ) and to compare the results with those of healthy controls. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty @entity1 (mean age: 75.02    6.34 years; 23 @entity1 ) with untreated @entity195 and 40 age-, sex-, and education-matched healthy @entity1 were examined in this case-control prospective study. All @entity1 underwent detailed ophthalmic and neurological examination. The @entity1032 ( @entity1032 ) was performed and RNFL thickness was measured using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. The association between RNFL and @entity1032 score was also assessed. RESULTS: The average RNFL thickness was 84    7.0   m in @entity195 @entity1 and 107    6.3   m in healthy subjects (P < 0.001). The mean @entity1032 score was 21.9    2.13 in @entity195 @entity1 . There was no significant correlation between the RNFL thickness and @entity1032 score. CONCLUSION: @entity1 with @entity195 had reduced RNFL thickness in all quadrants compared with the control group. This finding suggests that RNFL thickness analysis may be useful in the early diagnosis of @entity195 .
