Analysis of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography in preterm children: retinal layer thickness and choroidal thickness profiles
Purpose: To compare retinal layer thickness and choroidal thickness profiles in preterm and full-term children using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). Methods: We performed horizontal and vertical SD-OCT crosshair scans through the fovea with and without an enhanced depth technique in premature and full-term children. Retinal layer and choroidal thicknesses were measured at various locations including the fovea and 1.0 mm and 3.0 mm nasal, temporal, superior, and inferior to the fovea. After adjusting for age and the child's axial length, we compared retinal and choroidal thickness at the measurement points. Results: Total retinal thickness and ...
