The correlation between optical coherence tomography retinal shape irregularity and axial length

Version 1
Description

PurposeTo describe the retinal contour in optical coherence tomography (OCT) images, and report the relationship between retinal contour and axial length.MethodsRetinal contour was defined by the path of the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) line in macular and extra-macular OCTs of 70 eyes of 70 participants recruited from ophthalmology clinics in South Australia. The shape of this contour was described by the best-fit curvature (K), and Fourier analysis of the difference between K and the RPE.
