All subjects had a standard slit-lamp examination and optical coherence tomography. Central corneal thickness was measured using the Optopol spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD OCT) machine (version 7.2.0). A linear mixed effects model was used to assess the relationship between central corneal thickness (CCT) and ganglionic cell-inner plexiform layer thickness and macular retinal nerve fibre layer thickness (RNFL).Results: Sixty healthy eyes from 60 subjects were included in this study. The average age was 41.8 years (± 20.6 years). There were 22 males (37%) and 38 females (63%). The average central corneal thickness was 525.2 ± 35.1 μm (451– 601) μm. The average macular retinal nerve fiber layer thickness was 28.9 ± 2.5 μm (23– 38μm), and the average ganglionic cell-inner plexiform layer thickness was 88.6 ± 6.3 μm (75– 110 μm). We found no statistically significant relationship between central corneal thickness and ganglionic cell-inner plexiform layer thickness (p=0.983) nor with macular RNFL (p =0.285).Conclusion: In this cohort of healthy subjects, there was no statistically significant relationship between central corneal thickness and ganglionic cell-inner plexiform layer thickness or with macular retinal nerve fibre layer thickness.Keywords: central corneal thickness, ganglion cell layer, inner plexiform layer, optical coherence tomographyAl Saad MShehadeh AMeqbil JElubous KQablawi MAbu-Yaghi NYDove Medical Pressarticlecentral corneal thicknessganglion cell layerinner plexiform layeroptical coherence tomographyOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol Volume 15, Pp 1809-1812 (2021)
