Abstract
- Abstract: This study aims to examine the values of the orbital region in Turkish young adults by the two-dimensional photogrammetry. Anthropometric measurements of the eye and eyelid-related parameters were taken from 100 female and 100 male volunteer Turkish young adults, ranging in age from 18 to 25 years. Endocanthion (en), exocanthion (ex), and pupil (p) were identified on the photograph and the distances between these points were measured with the ImageJ program. The average values of the en-en, ex-en (R), ex-en (L), p-p, and ex-ex were found as 32.92 ± 2.84, 32.48 ± 2.06, 32.22 ± 2.01, 65.32 ± 3.77, and 97.75 ± 5.09 mm, respectively. There were statistically significant differences between the genders in all parameters. Although there are many studies examining these parameters, comprehensive studies are needed in different populations and in many cases. In this study, we believe that the results obtained for Turkish young adults can be used as reference values.<br />Competing Interests: The authors report no conflicts of interest.<br /> (Copyright © 2020 by Mutaz B.
