| Purpose: To compare the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness normative values measured by Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) with healthy subjects.Method: Thirty-nine randomized right or left eyes of 39 healthy subjects (18 female, 21 male), with a mean age of 25.1±3.0 (19-29) years were included in the study. Subjects without family history of glaucoma and who were evaluated by intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements, central corneal thickness (CCT), cup/disc ratio and OCT measurement results, and who were accepted as not in risky group for glaucoma were included in the study. Three sequential measurements were taken by Spectral OCT/SLO [Opko/OTI, Inc., Miami, FL] analyzer, by the same operator in the same day, and mean of these 3 measurements was used for the analysis. One sample t-test was used for statistical analysis.Results: The mean values of the subjects and the normative RNFL thickness database used by the device were; 142.5±16.5μ and 134.4±17.0μ (p= 0.004) in the superior quadrant, 97.4±11.5μ and 90.2±15.3μ (p= 0.0001) in the nasal quadrant, 145.4±16.3μ and 136.75±16.0μ (p= 0.002) in the inferior quadrant and 73.6±8.6μ and 74.3±13.0μ (p= 0.659) in the temporal quadrant, respectively. There was 6.1-8% RNFL thickness difference between the values measured in the superior, nasal and inferior quadrants and the normative data used by the device; while compatibility of the values between temporal quadrants and normative data was obtained.Discussion: The RNFL thickness in the superior, nasal and inferior quadrants were found to be statistically significant thicker in subjects included in the … |
