Abstract
A study of detailed computer analysis of the anthropometric data of the palpebral fissure in 99 Japanese (63 males, 36 females) was performed with Standardized photogrammetry of the face. In each subject, 6 standard points were stipulated and 17 anthropometric measurements were taken. 8 indices were calculated to illustrate in measurements, 7 measurements as well as these indices were processed statistically for significant differences by sex, and right and left sides. The male and female inclination of palpebral fissure, and the male length of palpebral fissure was significantly different in right and left sides. The length of the cornea, the length of the palpebral fissure, the exposing index of cornea, the widening index of palpebral fissure, and the width of palpebral fissure on the right and left, and the inclination of palpebral fissure the right, and the intercanthal distance and the width of face was significantly different by sex. These measurements and indices were compared with the Uchida's beauty index of the palpebral fissure. As a result, 28.37% of the males and 28.65% of the females were within this index.
