ABSTRACT
Corneal thickness is not only a major indicator of corneal diseases but an important parameter for the safety and the prevention of complications in various refractive surgeries widely performed nowadays.Therefore, we tried to acquire the basic data of corneal thickness in normal Koreans through this study. Central corneal thickness was measured using ultrasonic pachymeter in 460 eyes of 238 normal Koreans and analyzed according to the difference in age, sex, left &right, refractive error, and mean keratometry.Mean CCT was 529.67+/-32.18 micrometer.There is no statistically significant difference in CCT according to the difference in age, sex, left and right, refractive error, and mean keratometry in normal Koreans.
