Normative optical coherence tomography-based measurements and classification of optic nerve head parameters in adult Congolese subjects
This study provides population-specific normative data describing ONH morphology in healthy Congolese adults, addressing a critical gap for African populations that remain underrepresented in ocular imaging research. These ONH measurements were significantly greater than found in other populations. They may be used for diagnostic reliability and classification of Congolese subjects.
