Significance: Our authors studied the effects of measurement center shift on ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) thickness measurements in Cirrus spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT). The measurement center shift affects the GCIPL thickness measurement depending on the distance of shift.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore changes in macular GCIPL thicknesses measurements after manual shifting of the measurement center using SD-OCT.

Purpose: To evaluate the effect of spectral domain-optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) measurement center shift on the measurement of macular thickness.

Methods: This was a prospective observational case series. A total of 60 normal eyes of 60 subjects included in the study.

Purpose: To determine the repeatability of measuring the thickness of the central macula, retinal nerve fiber layer, and ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GC-IPL) using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (Cirrus HD-OCT) in eyes with age-related macular degeneration.

Methods: One hundred and thirty-four eyes were included. The measurement repeatability was assessed by an experienced examiner who performed two consecutive measurements using a 512 × 128 macular cube scan and a 200 × 200 optic disk cube scan.

Purpose: To determine the effects of intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on thickness of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) in patients with age-related macular degeneration.

Methods: Twenty eyes of 20 patients diagnosed with age-related macular degeneration who underwent intravitreal anti-VEGF injection were studied. Postinjection RNFL thickness was measured using optical coherence tomography.

Purpose: To investigate the effects of refractive power on macular thickness measurements by spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT).

Subjects And Methods: For this prospective cohort study, a total of 50 eyes from 50 normal subjects with no systemic or ocular disease and no history of ocular surgery were studied from February 2014 to May 2014. We used soft contact lenses with a wide range of diopters to change the refractive power.
