Abstract
Objective: To characterize the morphological and morphometric parameters of the optic disc and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) in healthy patients studied using optical coherence tomography. Materials and Methods: Descriptive, prospective, cross-sectional study. 252 eyes of 126 patients who attended ophthalmological evaluation at Clínica La Luz in Lima, Peru, from October 2022 to July 2023 were evaluated. Using the ZEISS CIRRUS TM HD OCT Model 5000 optical coherence tomography (Carl Zeiss Inc., Dublin, CA, USA), morphological and morphometric parameters of the optic disc and RNFL thickness were measured. Megalopapilla was defined as an optic disc area > 2.5mm2 and larger than the mean plus 2 standard deviations.
