Aim: The aim of this study was to establish a correlation between macular thickness on optical coherence tomography (OCT) and 2 visual functions (visual acuity and contrast sensitivity [CS]) in established cases of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG). Materials and Methods: A total of 50 consecutive patients of established POAG between 40 years and 70 years of age attending the glaucoma clinic of a tertiary care eye center in North India were enrolled for this cross‑sectional study. Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), CS and macular thickness by spectral‑domain‑OCT (Cirrus HD‑OCT, CarlZeiss, Germany) were evaluated. Statistical Analysis: The groups were compared together by one factor analysis of variance and the significance of mean difference between the groups was done by Newman‑Keuls test. Results: Newman‑Keuls test revealed a direct relationship of macular thickness to BCVA and CS (P < 0.05). Conclusion: BCVA and CS are directly related to the macular thickness on OCT.
