  • The study investigates the progression of retinal neuroaxonal loss in people with epilepsy (PwE) and its potential influencing factors over time.
  • Results show that PwE experience significant decreases in various retinal measurements compared to healthy controls, particularly in the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) and ganglion cell inner plexiform layer (GCIP).
