N2 - Background and purpose: Optic nerve involvement is frequent in mitochondrial disease, and retinal abnormalities are described in Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods: We evaluated retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness by optical coherence tomography in 43 patients with PD and in 86 age-matched controls. We considered separately the eyes ipsilateral and contralateral to the most affected body side in patients with PD. ancova analysis, Pearson test, and multiple regression analysis were used (P
