Summary

Purpose: To investigate the effect of pseudoexfoliation (PEX) on choroidal thickness in primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG).

Methods: This prospective, randomized study included 30 POAG patients and 30 PEX glaucoma patients with similar demographic characteristics, and 30 eyes of 30 healthy individuals comprised the control group. Macular choroidal thickness was measured using a Cirrus HD spectral domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) instrument.
