Results
The demographic characteristics and clinical findings of the individuals
in the group are shown in Table 1. There is no statistically significant
difference between the patient and the control group in terms of age,
sex, IOP (intraocular pressure), axial length, MD (mean deviation), PSD
(patent standard deviation) and visual acuity variables
(p>0.05).
Ocular fundus findings such as peripapillary atrophy in three patients,
focal hypopigmentation in two patients and widespread hypopigmentation
in one patient were found.
The mean choroidal thickness was 275,42 (202,57-379,14) µm in the
patient group and 297,50 (182,71-371,71) µm in the control group
(p=0.006).
While there was a statistically inversely low association between
subfoveal choroidal thickness and duration of disease in vitiligo
(p=0,029, r=-0,283), there was no statistically significant association
between age and the choroidal thickness (p>0.05) (Table 2).
While there was statistically significant difference between the patient
and the control group in terms of T3, T2, T1, subfoveal, N1 and mean
values (p<0.05), there was no statistically significant
difference between N2 and N3 values (p>0.05) (Table 3).
While there was statistically significant difference between the
patients and the control group in terms of superionasal and
inferiotemporal values (p<0.05), there was no statistically
significant difference between the groups in terms of global, temporal,
superiotemporal, nasal, and inferionasal values (p>0.05)
(Table 4).
While there was no statistically significant difference between
periocular involvement and non-macular choroidal values in the patient
group, macular choroidal thickness of periocular involvement patients
was observed to be thinner (Table 5).
There was no statistically significant difference in the RNFL thickness
between those with periocular involvement and those without (Table 6).
