Swept-source optical coherence tomography: choroidal analysis in healthy eyes
Abstract
Purpose. To evaluate choroidal thickness (CT) in healthy individuals using swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT).
Methods. Ophthalmological examination, axial length using Aladdin optical biometer and choroidal thickness using SS-OCT in 40 healthy eyes were assessed.
Results. Females had a thicker choroid than males in all subfields, N3000 region. A negative correlation between CT and age was detected in all subfields and between axial length and SF, T1500 and N1500 subfields (p < 0.05).
Conlusions. A negative statistically significant correlation between CT and age and between axial length and SF, T1500 and N1500 subfields were observed.
