Ultrasonic pachymetry was used to measure central, superior peripheral, and temporal peripheral corneal thickness of 35 cats (70 eyes) with normal corneas, anterior chambers, and intraocular pressures. Mean central corneal thickness for both eyes in 3 locations for 35 cats was 578 +/- 64 micrometers. Significant differences did not exist between central and peripheral corneal thickness. Corneal thickness increased significantly (P < 0.0001) with age up to 100 months. There was no significant difference in corneal thickness with regard to sex of the cats when adjusted for age.
