    Aim: To assess the normal macular thickness measurements in healthy eyes of Iraqi volunteers and its variation by gender and age using cirrus HD optical coherence tomography. Subjects and methods: This is a cross sectional study in a sample of healthy eyes of Iraqi volunteers to examine the macular thickness by optical coherence tomography at Ibn Alhaithem Teaching Eye Hospital. The samples were matched for age and gender. Optical coherence tomography analysis was undertaken with cubic macular thickness analysis in six radial scans centered at fovea dividing the macula into nine quadrants according to ETDRS (Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study) as well as the total macular volume and mean macular thickness that also be assessed. Results: Two hundred normal eyes of one hundred healthy Iraqi volunteers were e.. View More»
