To observe in vivo bulbar conjunctival structures, and determine the reproducibility of thickness measurements of normal human conjunctiva through optical coherence tomography (OCT) images. The bulbar conjunctivas of three study groups were observed: five enucleated porcine eyes with 20 um thickness...
