Description
Summary:Standardized ′A′ mode of Kretztechnik--7200 mA was used in 40 eyes of 20 patients for the measurement of extraocular muscle thickness. The mean thickness value of medial, lateral, superior and inferior rectus in the normal Indian population was found to be as 4.015 +/- 0.762 mm, 3.548 +/- 0.369 mm, 3.757 +/- 0.654 mm and 3.177 +/- 0.662 mm respectively.
