Central macular thickness is correlated with gestational age at birth in prematurely born children [PDF]

British Journal of Ophthalmology, 2010
Previous studies have revealed various subnormal visual functions in prematurely born children. The present study aimed to determine the retinal macular thickness in prematurely born children and compare with children born at term.The eyes of 65 prematurely born children aged 5-16 years were examined with Stratus optical coherence tomography (OCT) 3 ...

Sub-foveal choroidal thickness in acute central serous chorioretinopathy and its correlation with central macular thickness

Delta Journal of Ophthalmology, 2016
Purpose The aim of the study was to measure subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) in eyes with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR), to compare it with that of contralateral clinically unaffected eyes and with that of other healthy persons, and to study its correlation with central macular thickness (CMT).
