Brief Summary
To evaluate the optic disc parameters, thickness of ganglion cell complex (GCC), and thickness of peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) in myopic and hyperopic and emmetrop patients using optical coherence tomography (OCT), and to correlate these changes with axial length and degree of refractive error.
