Factors associated with optic disc parameters and circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness in 8-year-old children: The Yamanashi Adjunct Study of the Japan Environment and Children's Study.

ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationships between the circumpapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (cpRNFL) and optic disc parameters and associated factors in 8-year-old Japanese children who participated in the Yamanashi Adjunct Study of the Japan Environment and Children's Study (JECS). The participants in this study were 559 8-year-old Japanese children (277 boys and 282 girls) who participated in the Yamanashi Adjunct Study of JECS at the University of Yamanashi from June 2021 to March 2022. The visual acuity, spherical equivalent (SE), and axial length (AL) of the participants were measured. The cpRNFL thickness was measured with a spectral domain optical coherence tomograph (NIDEK RS-3000 Advance, Gamagori, Japan). The data of 349 participants (182 boys a
