Indian Journal of Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology (IJCEO) is open access, a peer-reviewed medical journal, published quarterly, online, and in print, by the Innovative Education and Scientific Research Foundation (IESRF) since 2015. To fulfil our aim of rapid dissemination of knowledge, we publish articles ‘Ahead of Print’ on acceptance. In addition, the journal allows free access (Open Access) to its content, which is likely to attract more readers and citations of articles published in IJCEO.

Abstract
Purpose: To determine the effect of pan retinal photocoagulation (PRP) on spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD OCT) morphologic parameters like macular ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GCIPL), peripapillary retinal nerve fibre layer (RNFL) thickness and central macular thickness (CMT) in diabetic retinopathy cases.
Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study including 52 eyes with severe non-proliferative to proliferative diabetic retinopathy without macular oedema who required PRP. Macular GCIPL, CMT and peripapillary RNFL thickness measured at baseline and at 1-, 6-, 12- and 18-months post PRP with SD OCT.
Result: CMT, Macular GCIPL and peripapillary RNFL thickness increased significantly at 1 month (p<0 xss=removed> Conclusion: CMT, macular GCIPL and peripapillary RNFL thickness increase following PRP; peaking at month 1 and stabilizing through next 18 months. Macular GCIPL thickness could be a reproducible indicator of temporal RNFL.
