This study ensures an age-adjusted pediatric normative database using OCT to diagnose and monitor macular diseases, optic nerve diseases, and glaucoma in children.
We could not find a significant difference in OPA, retinal and choroidal thicknesses between smokers and non smokers. Further studies including histopathological changes in larger groups are needed to show the effect of smoking on choroidal thickness especially in patients with ocular diseases like age-related macular degeneration.
The subfoveal choroid of eyes with hyperopic AE is significantly thicker than that of the fellow eye and the age-matched controls. Hence, CT seems to be effected in AE.
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.
