视网膜神经纤维层是视网膜的最内层，主要由来自视网膜神经节细胞的无髓鞘轴突组成，此外还有神经胶质细胞与视网膜血管，其厚度与年龄、眼球增长、眼底结构改变等因素相关。光学相干断层扫描可以清晰展示角膜、视网膜、脉络膜、视神经等高分辨率断层图像，可以在活体上显示生物学组织的细微结构，在临床与科研中已获得广泛应用。在青光眼视神经病变中，光学相干断层扫描可以发现视野异常前的视网膜神经纤维层损害，已成为青光眼早期诊断与视神经损伤程度检测的重要手段。除视神经病外，越来越多的研究表明许多视网膜血管疾病、神经元变性疾病等视网膜疾病也有视网膜神经纤维层的损伤。探讨视网膜疾病与神经纤维层的关系，将有利于进一步推进对视网膜疾病发病机制及病理改变的认识。本文就视网膜神经纤维层的定量评估与多种视网膜疾病的关系展开综述，为其在视网膜疾病中的应用提供参考。

The retinal nerve fiber layer, the innermost layer of the retina, consists mainly of unmyelinated axons from retinal ganglion cells, as well as glial cells and retinal blood vessels , the thickness of which is related to factors such as age, ocular growth and fundus structure changes. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) can clearly display the cornea, retina, choroid, optic nerve and other high-resolution tomography images. It can show the fine structure of biological tissues in vivo, which has been widely used in clinical and scientific research. In glaucomatous optic neuropathy, OCT can detect the damage of retinal nerve fiber layer before abnormal visual field, which has become an important means of early diagnosis of glaucoma and detection of the degree of optic ner ve damage. In addition to optic neuropathy, more studies have shown that many retinal diseases such as retinal vascular diseases and neurodegenerative diseases also have retinal nerve fiber layer injury. Exploring the relationship between retinal diseases and nerve fiber layer will be beneficial to further promote the understanding of the pathogenesis and pathological changes of retinal diseases. This paper reviews the relationship between the quantitative evaluation of retinal nerve fiber layer and various retinal diseases, and provides reference for its application in retinal diseases.
