Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 59 eyes of 59 children diagnosed with PCG and 87 eyes of 87 healthy children were evaluated by SD-OCT to measure the RNFL. The global average peripapillary RNFL thickness and sectional RNFL thickness were evaluated in both groups. Differences in global average and sectional thickness were analyzed. Results: Mean age in the PCG group was 9.61 ± 3.23 years; in the control group, 8.47 ± 2.99 years (P = 0.0516). There were statistically significant differences (P < 0.007) in all sectors between both groups. Conclusions: SD-OCT is a promising tool for evaluating the eyes of children diagnosed with PCG. Future research should examine the test–retest variability of SD-OCT parameters and their ability to diagnose progression in these children.engAtribución-NoComercial-SinDerivadas 3.0 Españajournal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.jaapos.2017.03.023https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1091853116303883?via%3Dihubopen access617.7-007.681-053.2617.7-007.681-073617.749-053.2-073Retinal nerve fiberLayer thciknessChildrenpediatric ophthalmologyGlaucomaPrimary congenital glaucomaOptical coherence tomographyOftalmologíaAnatomía ocularTécnicas de la imagen3201.09 Oftalmología
