Purpose To determine whether water drinking test (WDT) alters choroidal structure using binarization of enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomographic (EDI-OCT) images. Methods We performed a prospective study of 57 eyes of 57 normal subjects. The intraocular pressure (IOP), EDI-OCT images, an...
