Objective To investigate the effects of systemic isotretinoin therapy on retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness and corneal endothelial cell density (ECD)
Methods Thirty-three patients completed the study. All patients were given an ophthalmic examination at baseline and after six months of isotretinoin therapy. All patients underwent a detailed eye examination including best corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure, refractive errors, biomicroscopic anterior segment and fundus examination. In addition, Schirmer test without topical anesthesia, tear break up time, retinal nerve fiber thickness measurements with optical coherence tomography (OCT) and specular microscopy measurements were performed on all patients.
Results There were 23 female (69.7 %) and 10 male (30.3 %) patients. Post treatment RNFL values were
significantly lower than pretreatment values on both right and left eyes (P=0.048 and P<0.001). We did not find any correlation between total dose of isotretinoin and mean RNFL thickness values on both right and left eyes (P=0.118, P=0.909). There were no significant differences in the mean Schirmer scores, Break up time values of both eyes during the treatment compared with the baseline values. There were significant differences in corneal ECD between pre and postreatment period (P=0.017, P=0.006).
Conclusion After the use of oral isotretinoin for six months, we found decreased RNFL and CCT thickness by OCT.

Amaç Sistemik izotretinoin tedavisinin retina sinir lifi tabakası (RSLT) kalınlığı ve kornea endotel hücre yoğunluğu üzerindeki etkilerini değerlendirmek
Yöntem Otuz üç hasta çalışmayı tamamladı. Tüm hastalara başlangıçta ve tedavi süresince tedavinin başlangıcından altı ay sonra oftalmik muayene yapıldı. Tüm hastalara düzeltilmiş görme keskinliği, göz içi
basıncı, kırma kusurları, biyomikroskopik ön segment ve fundus muayenesini içeren detaylı bir göz muayenesi yapıldı. Ayrıca tüm hastalara topikal anestezi yapılmadan Schirmer testi, gözyaşı kırılma zamanı bakıldı, optik koherens tomografi ile retina sinir lifi kalınlık ölçümleri ve speküler mikroskopi ölçümleri yapıldı.
Bulgular 23 kadın (%69.7) ve 10 erkek (%30.3) hasta dahil edildi. Tedavi sonrası RSLT kalınlığı hem sağ hem de sol gözde tedavi öncesi değerlerden anlamlı derecede düşüktü (P=0.048 ve P<0.001). Hem sağ hem de sol gözde toplam izotretinoin dozu ile ortalama RSLT kalınlık değerleri arasında herhangi bir ilişki bulunamadı (P=0.118, P=0.909). Tedavi sırasında her iki gözün ortalama Schirmer skorları, kırılma zamanı değerlerinde başlangıç değerleriyle karşılaştırıldığında anlamlı bir fark yoktu. Kornea endotel hücre yoğunluğunda tedavi öncesi ve sonrası dönem arasında anlamlı farklılıklar vardı (P=0.017, P=0.006).
Sonuç Altı ay süreyle oral izotretinoin kullanımı sonrası OKT ile RSLT ve kornea kalınlığında azalma saptadık
