Quantitative corneal anatomy in emmetropic subjects.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:Currently there is little information available about the corneal thickness values of healthy emmetropic subjects. Therefore, the authors decided to analyze the corneal thickness in healthy emmetropic subjects. METHODS:The authors analyzed the difference in thickness values between the thinnest corneal site and the central and paracentral cornea in 124 eyes of 124 healthy emmetropic white subjects. RESULTS:The mean difference between the thinnest site of the cornea and the thickness values obtained in the areas analyzed was as follows: 12+/-6 microm center; 140+/-19 microm superonasal; 133+/-23 microm nasal; 117+/-26 microm inferonasal; 122+/-19 microm superotemporal ; 89+/-22 microm temporal; and 99+/-29 microm inferotemporal (p<0.001; one way analysis of variance test). CONCLUSIONS:In healthy emmetropic white subjects the thinnest site of the cornea is statistically lower than the central and paracentral cornea.
