Abstract
The aim of this study is to investigate whether there may be differences in the measurements of the orbital region between healthy children and children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). In this study, the orbital region measurements of 310 children, including 130 ADHD children and 180 healthy children aged 7 to 11 years, were analyzed. For this analysis, anterior view photographs of these individuals were used. For both sides, endocanthion (en), exocanthion (ex), and pupil (p) were determined in these photographs. A total of 5 distances (ex-ex, en-en, ex-en for the right side, ex-en for the left side and p-p) were analyzed using these points. In both sexes, no statistically significant difference was observed between the 2 groups in all 6 parameters analyzed. Although it was concluded that there was no difference in orbital measurements between healthy children and children with ADHD in this study, it was thought that a definite conclusion could not be reached because the cases examined belonged to a single center. Therefore, it is thought that multicenter studies in which more individuals are evaluated are needed.
