Macular Choroidal Thickness Profile in a Healthy Population Measured by Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography

Abstract

To our knowledge, this is the first population study of CT of healthy eyes across a broad range of age groups using SS-OCT. As has been determined using spectral-domain OCT, CT decreases with advancing age, especially after age 40. There were no differences due to sex. The greatest CT variation takes place in temporal sectors.
