dc.description.abstractIntroduction This study aims to compare the choroidal thickness (CT) of patients with rosacea with healthy individuals. Methods This study was conducted with 42 patients with Papulopustular Rosacea (PPR), 38 patients with Erythematotelangiectatic Rosacea (ETR), and gender and age-matched 37 healthy individuals in the control group. CT measurements were done using the spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. Results Choroidal thickness means were measured as 352 +/- 78 mu m, 331 +/- 67 mu m, and 346 +/- 83 mu m at the subfoveal region; 323 +/- 72.3 mu m, 303.5 +/- 68.4 mu m, and 314 +/- 80.3 mu m at 1000 mu m nasal; and 325.2 +/- 71 mu m, 304.4 +/- 52.2 mu m, and 309 +/- 67 mu m at 1000 mu m temporal in the PPR, ETR, and control groups, respectively (p > 0.05). Conclusion Although rosacea is a common chronic skin disease that could have systemic findings, CT is not affected by this disease.
