Material and methods: Totally 149 healthy patients aged between 0 and 69 years from seven different decades were included in this study. The retinal and choroidal thickness of the central area (fovea) and of the nasal and temporal points at a distance of 1500 ?m from this central point were measured in the right eye with an OCT device (Heidelberg, Germany) in all subjects. The subjects with any ocular or systemic pathology and the subjects with a spherical refractive error more than 3 D or a cylindrical refractive error more than 1 D were excluded. The measurements of right eyes of the subjects were used in the statistical analysis and the P value less than 0.01 was considered to be significant. Results: The mean retinal thickness measurements were 326.61±16.89 µm at the temporally, 218.72±19.06 µm centrally and 351.32±17.74 µm nasally, with no statistically significant difference between the age groups (p?0.01). The mean choroidal thickness measurements were 299.01±72.38 µm temporally, 332.34±78.08 µm centrally and 258.30±71.80 µm nasally. There were statistically significant differences in central and temporal choroidal thickness between age groups (p?0.01). Conclusion: A statistically significant decrease was present in the choroidal thickness but not in the retinal thickness with age.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBiyolojiAlerjiAnatomi ve MorfolojiAndrolojiAnesteziOdyoloji ve Konuşma-Dil PatolojisiBiyokimya ve Moleküler BiyolojiBiyofizikBiyoteknoloji ve Uygulamalı MikrobiyolojiKalp ve Kalp Damar SistemiHücre BiyolojisiKlinik NörolojiYoğun Bakım, TıpDermatolojiAcil TıpEndokrinoloji ve MetabolizmaGastroenteroloji ve HepatolojiGeriatri ve GerontolojiSağlık Bilimleri ve HizmetleriHematolojiİmmünolojiEnfeksiyon HastalıklarıTamamlayıcı ve Entegre TıpTıbbi EtikTıbbi İnformatikTıbbi Laboratuar TeknolojisiGenel ve Dahili TıpAdli TıpTıbbi Araştırmalar DeneyselMikrobiyolojiNörolojik BilimlerKadın Hastalıkları ve DoğumOnkolojiGöz HastalıklarıOrtopediKulak, Burun, BoğazPatolojiPediatriPeriferik Damar HastalıklarıFizyolojiTemel Sağlık HizmetleriPsikiyatriHalk ve Çevre SağlığıRadyoloji, Nükleer Tıp, Tıbbi GörüntülemeRehabilitasyonSolunum SistemiRomatolojiSpor BilimleriCerrahiTransplantasyonTropik TıpÜroloji ve NefrolojiArticle10.5455/jtomc.2018.03.045253314317285588
