Morphometric characteristics of the optical disc and thickness of retinal nerve fibre layer using Cirrus 5000 optical coherence tomography in healthy patients attending the National Institute of Ophthalmology.

CONCLUSION: The mean disc area was 2.21±0.43mm2 with a CFNR thickness of 100.30±8.54μm. The prevalence of megalopapilla was 24% and 4%, considering a disc area greater than 2.5 mm2 and 3.07 mm2, respectively. These results show that the megalopapilla and normal discs are similar in terms of ring area and CFNR thickness. PMID: 31594674 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
