Background: In the diagnosis and evaluation of many visual illnesses, such as macular edema, macular thickness is an important metric. Gender, age, ethnicity, refraction, and axial length all have an effect on the retinal macular thickness. Preoperative calculations of intraocular lens power during cataract surgery and myopia research necessitate precise and accurate measurements of axial eye length.Objective: To assess the macular thickness in eyes with no ocular pathology, which is important because it serves as a reference for the consequent diagnosis, and to assess the effectiveness of treatment for various macula-related illnesses.
Conclusion:Thickness of macula is not the same in all eyes, as it expected to vary with change of eye axial length, which can guide and help in various ocular diseases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
