Abstract
A quantitative assessment of the anterior chamber angle in its various segments was performed using optical coherence tomography. 96 eyes of healthy volunteers were assessed, divided into groups based on gender, age, and refraction. It was shown that the anterior chamber angle width has natural variability in different segments, tends to decrease with increasing age, and depends on refractive characteristics.
