Relationship between fundus sex index obtained using color fundus parameters and body height or axial length in the Kumejima population.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To investigate the relationship between the fundus sex index obtained from fundus photographs and body height or axial length in the Kumejima population.

Study design

Prospective cross-sectional observational population study.

Methods

Using color fundus photographs obtained from the Kumejima population, 1,653 healthy right eyes with reliable fundus parameter measurements were included in this study. The tessellation fundus index was calculated as R/(R + G + B) using the mean value of the red-green-blue intensity in the eight locations around the optic disc and foveal region. The optic disc ovality ratio, papillomacular angle, and retinal vessel angle were quantified as previously described. The masculine or feminine fundus was quantified using machine learning
