목적: 스펙트럼영역 빛간섭단층촬영기를 사용하여 정시안에서의 연령과 성별에 따른 황반 두께를 비교하였다. 대상과 방법: 전신적 및 안과적 질환이 없으며 정시안을 가진 90명 162안을 대상으로 연령에 따라 1군(0-19세), 2군(20-39세), 3군 (40-59세), 4군(60-80세)으로 나누어 영역별 황반 두께를 비교하였다. 결과: 정시안에서 중심와를 포함한 1 mm 직경내 중심원의 평균 두께는 253.40 ± 23.03 μm였으며 연령 증가에 따른 유의한 차이는 없었다(p>0.05). 하지만 3 mm 직경내 안쪽원과 6 mm 직경내 바깥쪽원의 평균 두께는 연령이 증가함에 따라 감소하였다(p<0.05). 남성에서 중심원과 안쪽원의 황반 두께가 여성보다 유의하게 두꺼웠으나 바깥쪽원은 차이가 없었다. 연령군에 따른 성별의 차이를 알아본 결과 3군과 4군에서 1 mm 직경내 중심원의 두께는 남성이 여성보다 매우 두꺼웠으며, 안쪽원의 황반 두께는 3군에서 남성이 여성보다 유의하게 두꺼웠다(p<0.05). 결론: 정시안에서 측정된 황반 두께는 연령과 성별에 따른 차이가 있으며 이는 황반부 질환에서 진단 및 치료 경과의 관찰에 유용한 지표가 될 수 있을 것이다.

Abstract

Purpose: To evaluate the changes in macular thickness with regard to age and gender in normal subjects with emmetropia using spectral domain optical coherence tomography. Methods: The present study consisted of 90 healthy subjects (162 eyes) with no ophthalmic evidence of retinopathy and who had emmetropic eyes. The data from macular measurements using spectral domain optical coherence tomography was analyzed according to the groups divided by age (Group 1: 0 to 19 years of age, Group 2: 20 to 39 years of age, Group 3: 40 to 59 years of age, Group 4: 60 to 80 years of age) and gender. Results: Macular thickness of the central circle was 253.40 ± 23.03 μm in all subjects. There was no significant change with age (p > 0.05). However, the measurements at the inner (3 mm) and outer circle (6 mm) showed a reduction of macular thickness with age (p < 0.05). The macular thickness at the central and inner circle was significantly lower in the female subjects (p < 0.05). In group 3 and 4, macular thickness at the central circle in males was greater than in females. In group 3, the average inner macular thickness in males was significantly greater than in females (p < 0.05). Conclusions: In normal subjects with emmetropia, there are statistically significant differences in macular thickness between subjects of different age and gender. The results from the present study can be expected to provide a reference value for evaluating macular disease.
