Choroidal thickness in obese women.
BACKGROUND Excessive weight is a well-known risk factor for microvascular diseases. Changes in thickness in a vascular tissue, such as the choroid, can be useful to evaluate the effect of obesity on the microvascular system. The aim of this study was to evaluate the choroidal thickness (CT) changes in obese women, using optical coherence tomography (OCT). METHODS The prospective clinical stud...
متن کاملChoroidal Thickness in Women with Uncomplicated Pregnancy: Literature Review
Pregnancy is a time when many changes occur in a woman's body. The goal of these changes is the provision of optimum conditions for the development of the foetus. Pregnancy also affects eye physiology.

متن کاملComparative analysis of choroidal thickness in third trimester pregnant women
Background The impact of pregnancy on the choroid is still under investigation. The aim of this study is to compare choroidal thickness measurements of healthy pregnant women in the third trimester and healthy non-pregnant women using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT). Methods This cross-sectional study included 122 eyes of 61 women, divided into two groups: 27 healthy pregna...
متن کاملGlaucoma and Choroidal Thickness
Since the landmark study by Spaide and colleagues on the development of enhanced depth imaging by optical coherence tomography, an increasing number of studies have addressed choroidal thickness in normal eyes, factors associated with choroidal thickness in normal eyes, and associations of choroidal thickness with various retinal and retinochoroidal disorders. These studies have revealed that m...
متن کاملChoroidal Thickness in Healthy Subjects
Purpose To measure the choroidal thickness by enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) in normal eyes. Methods In a prospective case series, 208 eyes of 104 normal Iranian subjects were enrolled. Complete ophthalmic examination was performed. Inclusion criteria were best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) ≥20/20, ≤ ±1 diopter of refractive error in either spherical or cylindr...
