Normative values for retinal parameters in a ghanaian clinical population at risk for glaucoma

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: The aim of this study is to provide normative data on retinal parameters associated with glaucoma in a Ghanaian clinical population of older age, which places them at increased risk. The fact that ppRNFL decreases with age13,15,21 may justify the lower mean ppRNFL measurement recorded in this study compared to the study by Ocansey et_al16 Studies have reported ethnic variations in ppRNFL thickness with Caucasians having thinner measurements when compared to other ethnicities . This study reports on normative values for peripapillary retinal nerve fibre thickness, macula ganglion cell complex and optic nerve head measurements . . .
