Macular thickness variations with refractive error in healthy / Nur Hayati Mohamed Shabery
Macula is the center of the retina which produces the sharpest vision. Thickness of the macula will affect the production of image. This study is conducted to measure the macular thickness in healthy eyes using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) in Malay subjects. This cross-secti...
