ABSTRACT
Abstract

Objective:

To compare macular and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thicknesses of dominant eye and non-dominant eye using optical coherence tomography (OCT).

Methods:

104 eyes of 52 healthy young adults were included. Ophthalmological examinations; including measuring refraction, best corrected visual acuity, intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement, slit-lamb biomicroscopy, dilated fundus examination, measuring of central macular thickness (CMT), and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (PRNFL) thickness were performed on each subject. Hole-in-the-card test was used to detect the ocular dominance.

Results:

There were 25 females (48%) and 27 males (52%) in the study. Eight participants had left eye dominance (15%), forty-four participants had right eye dominance (85%). Mean CMT was 192.5µm in dominant group and 191.9 µm in non-dominant group. There was no statistically significant difference between dominant eye group and non-dominant eye group in either macular thickness or peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness.

Conclusions:

No difference between macular and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thicknesses were detected in dominant and non-dominant groups. Further evaluation is needed.
RESUMO
Resumo

Objetivo:

Comparar as espessuras da camada de fibras nervosas da retina macular e peripapilar do olho dominante e não dominante usando a tomografia de coerência óptica (OCT).

Métodos:

104 olhos de 52 adultos jovens saudáveis foram incluídos. Exames oftalmológicos; incluindo medidas de refração, melhor acuidade visual corrigida, medição da pressão intraocular (PIO), biomicroscopia de fenda-cordeiro, exame do fundo dilatado, medição da espessura macular central (CMT) e espessura da camada de fibras nervosas da retina peripapilar (PRNFL) foram realizadas em cada sujeito. O teste Hole-in-the-card foi usado para detectar a dominância ocular.

Resultados:

houve 25 mulheres (48%) e 27 homens (52%) no estudo. Oito participantes tinham deixado a dominância do olho (15%), quarenta e quatro participantes tinham dominância do olho direito (85%). A CMT média foi de 192,5 µm no grupo dominante e 191,9 µm no grupo não dominante. Não houve diferença estatisticamente significativa entre o grupo dominante de olho e o grupo de olho não dominante tanto na espessura macular quanto na espessura da camada de fibras nervosas da retina peripapilar.

Conclusões:

Não houve diferença entre as espessuras das camadas de fibras nervosas da retina macular e peripapilar nos grupos dominante e não dominante. Mais avaliações são necessárias.
