Background/aims: To investigate the correlation between optic disc parameters and their association with demographic variables in a Chinese population.Methods: Disc data were obtained from 929 subjects aged >= 40 years from the Tanjong Pagar glaucoma survey of Singapore, using a novel planimetric method of sequential stereo-photographs. Biometric data (refractive error, keratometry, axial length, anterior chamber depth, lens thickness) were used to calculate ocular magnification. Camera magnification was quantified with a model eye. A "normal'' dataset of 622 subjects was generated by exclusion of subjects with abnormal results on psychophysical testing, an occludable angle or an intraocular pressure >97.5th percentile in either eye.Results: Median disc area (DA), cup area (CA), and rim area (RA) were 2.09 (range 1.28-4.01) mm(2), 0.69 (0.01-1.90) mm(2) and 1.38 (0.82-2.50) mm(2), respectively. There was strong evidence of an association between DA and RA (Spearman's rho 0.624, p
