Abstract

We have read and reviewed the paper entitled “Choroidal Thickness in Patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer's Type Dementia” by Bulut et al. with interest [1]. The authors demonstrated that choroidal thickness (CT) was significantly smaller both in patients with Alzheimer's type dementia and in patients with mild cognitive impairment when compared to healthy control subjects. They also found a significant correlation between mini-mental state examination score and CT.

Highlights

  • The authors demonstrated that choroidal thickness (CT) was significantly smaller both in patients with Alzheimer’s type dementia and in patients with mild cognitive impairment when compared to healthy control subjects

  • We ask the authors whether they took the systemic disease status and use of drugs that could affect CT measurements into consideration

  • We wonder about the sleep, smoking, and exercise statuses of the patients and consumption of alcohol or caffeinated/noncaffeinated beverages before OCT
