It's way less scary in the actual linked paper:

Given that the retina can reflect structural brain alterations as they are embryonically and anatomically connected,12 this could be corroborated by evidence that brain abnormalities associated with visual pathways are observed in ASD.

TLDR: Abnormal developments in the brain that have visual components may closely correlate with abnormal developments in the eye.
