Methods: 30 eyes of 15 patients with RP patients and 20 cases of 40 normal subjects in frequency domain optical coherence tomography, RP patients choose to rely on history, anterior and posterior section examination, fundus fluorescein angiography and electrophysiological study, all patients underwent full-thickness, inner and outer retinal thickness measurements. the normal group and the RP group was used to compare retinal thickness between the independent samples t test, retinal thickness and visual acuity using Pearson correlation test. Results: All patients with RP are thinner photoreceptor layer of the normal group of patients with RP The inner retinal thickness was not significant, while the full-thickness and outer retinal thickness was statistically significant. visual acuity and retinal thickness of all layers have good correlation with the thickness of the outer retina associated with better . Conclusion: The frequency-domain optical coherence tomography can measure the thickness of the outer retina, while the outer layer of light receptors in retinal thickness can better evaluate the loss, RP patients were significantly thinner outer retinal thickness, and with visual acuity was relevant. [Keywords:] frequency domain optical coherence tomography, retinal pigment degeneration Abstract AIM: To assess photoreceptor morphology in patients with retinitis pigmentosa (RP) using frequency domain optical coherence tomography (FD OCT) and its correlation with visual acuity (VA). METHODS: Thirty eyes of 15 patients with RP were imaged with FD OCT. Patients were selected based
