Reproducibility of optical coherence tomography retinal nerve fiber layer thickness measurements before and after pupil dilation.

Purpose: To evaluate the intra- and interobserver reproducibility of peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness measurements before and after pupil dilation using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).

Methods: In this observational case series, 44 eyes of 44 healthy subjects were scanned by two trained operators on the same day, using Cirrus SD-OCT (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Dublin, CA, USA). Three scans were obtained before and after pupil dilation by each operator.
