purpose : to describe the macular thickness map of iranian adult with normal retinal status as measured by cirrus’ optical coherence tomography (oct) instrument methods : in this cross-sectional study, one eye of subjects with normal ocular examination and retinal status of at least one eye were recruited. the 512×128-scan pattern and scan area of 6×6 mm2 with software version 4 protocol in cir...

purpose: to measure macular thickness in normal subjects with respect to age and gender using cirrus hd-oct in rasht city. methods: in this cross-sectional study, 112 normal subjects were randomly selected. both eyes of each subject were included and all subjects underwent complete eye examinations. macular thickness map protocol with macular cube 512×128 was selected, and the average thickness...

we aimed determine normal macular thickness by using cirrus hd-oct in  rasht city, iran. in this cross-sectional survey, 112 were selected with random sampling. all subjects underwent complete eye examinations. both eyes of each patient were evaluated. optional protocol was macular thickness map with macular cub 512×128 and the average thickness of the retina was determined in 9 etdrs regions. ...

PURPOSE To determine normal macular thickness and its variation by age and gender in healthy eyes using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). METHODS In this cross-sectional analysis, two hundred and twenty eyes of 220 healthy subjects underwent raster scanning using Topcon SD-OCT system, at the Department of Ophthalmology, Dow University of Health Sciences and Civil Hospital...

PURPOSE To describe the development of a technique that enhances spatial resolution of retinal thickness maps of the Stratus OCT (Carl Zeiss Meditec, Inc., Dublin, CA). A retinal thickness atlas (RT-atlas) template was calculated, and a macular coordinate system was established, to pursue this objective. METHODS The RT-atlas was developed from principal component analysis of retinal thickness...

purpose: to evaluate the rate of optical coherence tomography (oct) grid decentration in a routine practice and its effect on thickness measurements methods: topcon spectral domain oct scans from various macular diseases including age related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, macular pucker and central serous chorioretinopathy (cscr) were studied in all patients visited during seven...

PURPOSE To examine the relationship between signal strength and macular thickness as measured by Stratus optical coherence tomography (OCT)'s fast macular thickness protocol in healthy subjects. METHODS In this prospective cross-sectional study 79 eyes of 42 healthy subjects were enrolled. The age, gender, and eye (right vs left) of each subject were recorded. The Stratus OCT fast macular thi...

PURPOSE To integrate parameters on spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) in diabetic retinopathy (DR) based on the self-organizing map and objectively describe the macular morphologic patterns. METHODS A total of 336 consecutive eyes of 216 patients with DR for whom clear SD-OCT images were available were retrospectively reviewed. Eleven OCT parameters and the logarithm of the...

PURPOSE To investigate the relationship between myopia and macular thickness, as measured by optical coherence tomography. METHODS A total of 143 normal subjects comprising 80 eyes with high myopia (spherical equivalent [SE] < -6.0 D), 37 eyes with low to moderate myopia (SE between -6.0 and -0.5 D), and 26 nonmyopic eyes (SE > -0.5 D) were analyzed in this cross-sectional study. Total averag...

OBJECTIVE To collect a normative database of macular thickness, retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thicknesses, and optic nerve topography in the healthy eyes of children aged 3 to 17 years using optical coherence tomography (OCT) measurements. METHODS Scans were obtained for 286 healthy children (black, 114; white, 154; other, 18). Each child had a dilated eye examination, an axial length meas...
