Background/aims Choroidal thickness measurements are reported to differ between swept source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) and spectral domain OCT (SD-OCT). This study aimed to assess the comparability of choroidal thickness measurements using SS-OCT and SD-OCT devices among patients with retinal diseases and normal participants.Methods In a prospective cohort study of 100 subjects, comprising patients with retinal disease and normal volunteers, OCT scans were performed sequentially with the DRI OCT-1 and Spectralis OCT using standardised imaging protocols. Subfoveal choroidal thicknesses were independently measured by masked reading-centre certified graders. Paired t tests and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) were used to compare the measurements.Results Among all 100 participants, mean subfoveal choroidal thickness was 264.3 mu m and 272.4 mu m for DRI OCT-1 and Spectralis OCT respectively (p=0.001), with ICC of 0.989. The mean difference in choroidal thickness between OCT devices was larger among eyes with retinal diseases compared with normal eyes (8.4 mu m vs 7.3 mu m). Eyes with choroidal thickness
