Correlation between Outer Nuclear Layer Thickness and Visual Acuity with Duration of Retinal Detachment
Abstract: Purpose: To correlate outer nuclear layer thickness and visual acuity with duration of detachment. Design: It was a prospective interventional study. Method: The population consisted of patients treated for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. Post RRD repair 45 patients were divided into three groups. Group A operated within 1 month of RRD, Group B within 1 - 3 months, and Group C after 3 months. ONL Thickness and Best corrected visual acuity was compared at 4 months. Statistical analysis: The variables were compared using unpaired t - test. These variables were correlated with duration of retinal detachment using Pearson?s correlation coefficient and ANOVA. Results: The difference in ONL thickness was significant between Group A and C (p
