- The study aimed to understand changes in retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness over five years in individuals aged 45-69 to differentiate between age-related thinning and pathological changes.
- A total of 1,524 eyes from 908 participants were evaluated, revealing a minor average change in RNFL thickness, with variations depending on eye quadrants and specific demographic factors.
- Results indicated that changes in RNFL thickness were mostly insignificant in a healthy population, with certain factors like axial length and macular volume showing correlations to these changes.

Methods: Cluster sampling was done to select the students in urban areas of Shahroud, northeast Iran, while all students living in rural areas were selected. IOP was measured in mmHg using a non-contact tonometer, along with corneal and retinal imaging and ocular biometric measurement.
Objective: To determine the agreement between measurements of accommodative amplitude (AoA) in children using a specialised accommodative rule and measurments without it.
Methods: A total of 502 children underwent optometric examinations, including the measurement of visual acuity, objective and subjective refraction. AoA measurements were done with and without the Berens accommodative rule.
