The number of sample was 214(120 males and 94 females) in the western area and 248(182 males and 66 females) In the eastern area of the province, all of whom were over 18 in age The items were 13 in allㆍ9 items regarding to the eye and 4 to the nose. The measurements were executed using image analyzer on the photographs taken from front. 45° left later ai, and 90 0 left lateral side The western and eastern areas were regarded as experimental groups and the measuied values were compared with each other. In addition, the values were also compared to those of the Korean already published. In males, the eastern people showed somewhat wider nasal breadth(ala-ala) and larger corneal diameter. There was also a tendency for the palpabral fissure to be more inclined. and for the interectocanthal distance to be larger in eastern males than those in the west.
