Optic nerve rnfl oct shows thinning temporal- both eyes, 20/20 both eyes, iop 17 both eyes. retinal exam normal. is this significant

Response: Since all you provide are some brief findings regarding your retinas, I must conclude these tests were obtained due to some neurological symptoms. These results could be part of Multiple Sclerosis, if other signs and symptoms support the diagnosis. The thinning of the RNFL is notable, and should be followed up. Would a Concierge visit allow more in depth understanding?
