Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Retinal nerve fiber layer(RNFL) and Macular thickness by Optical coherence tomography(OCT) during pregnancy
The RNFL, measured in micrometers, will be followed up during the study. Every trimester (starting at the 1st trimester) an OCT will be performed measuring the thickness of the RNFL. An OCT will be performed 3 months postpartum as a control. The Macular thickness will be measured in the same manner.
1 year
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Effect of systemic and ocular diseases on Retinal Fiber Layer and Macula during pregnancy
1 year
