Examination of Eyeball diameter and height values
Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Inroduction: There are changes in eye size and volume with age. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether the changes in ocular globe measurements are significant in adolescents and young adulthood. METHODS: Computed Tomography (CT) image qualitative bulb diameter measurements were evaluated, between 07.11.2018 and 15.11.2018 through PACS (Picture Archiving Communication Systems) system in Radiology clinic. Three groups were formed for the study. For each age, 10 male and 10 female cases were measured under an ophthalmic lens with bulb diameters on CT images. Moreover, the distance from the bottom of the lens to the corneal dome, the height values, was also measured. Results: 10 male and 10 female patients in the first group (15, 16, and 17 years old) who met the study criteria were evaluated. Bulbus diameter mean values ranged from 20,45 mm to 21,7 mm. The average height values were found to be between 6,64 mm and 7,38 mm. In the second group for the young adults (25, 26 and 27 years), the mean diameter of the eyeball was found between 23,28 mm and 23,66 mm, the average height values were found to be between 7,92 mm and 8,5 mm. In the third group (35,36 and 37 years), mean diameter of the eyeball was determined between 23,36 mm and 24,64 mm, the average height values were found to be between 8,10 mm and 8,52 mm.. Conclusion In this study, it was determined that the mean values of bulb diameter increased with age. However, it was found that this increase did not show a regular increase in successive ages and the difference was not statistically significant. This study was planned as a preliminary study to be based on postmortem ocular patch study which we planned to perform later.
