Abstract
ABSTRACT Purpose: To measure the subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT) and assess intereye subfoveal choroidal thickness difference (ISFCTD) in patients with unilateral Fuchs Uveitis Syndrome (FUS) compared with healthy controls. Methods: Forty-two patients with unilateral FUS were included in this observational retrospective study. SFCT in both eyes was measured in patients and controls using optical coherent tomography. The measurements were analyzed and compared as follows: for SFTC-affected eye vs fellow eye (FUS); affected eye (FUS) vs right control eye; fellow eye (FUS) vs left control eye; for ISFCTD – FUS patients vs controls. In addition, measurement error analysis was performed. Results: No significant differences in SFCT between the compared eyes were found (p > .05). The mean ISFCTD was 57.24 ± 40.8 µm in FUS patients and 30.33 ± 25.48 µm in controls (p < .,001). Conclusion: The ISFCTD was higher in FUS patients than in controls. There were no statistically significant differences in SFCT between the compared eyes.
