The literature regarding the diagnostic accuracy and prognostic value of OCT parameters in children with a brain tumour is scarce. Due to heterogeneity and a considerable risk of bias of included studies, we cannot draw solid conclusions regarding the accuracy of retinal OCT. Future research should investigate the potential of OCT as diagnostic and prognostic tool for the evaluation of the visual function and detection of visual impairment in children with any type of brain tumour.
