The purpose of this study was undertaken to determine the analysis of normal values of height of palpebral fissure and Hertel exophthalmometry in Korean woman university students. These measurements were taken from 118 health subjects aged 18-21 years in Korea. In 18-21 years, the mean values of height of palpebral fissure were $6.967{\pm}1.599mm$, $7.172{\pm}1.502mm$, $8.015{\pm}1.44mm$ and $7.1{\pm}1.224mm$, respectively. However, In 18-21 years, the mean values of protrusion were $12.50{\pm}2.33mm$, $12.343{\pm}2.634mm$, $12.773{\pm}1.974mm$ and $13.036{\pm}2.23mm$, respectively. As a results, according to increase the aging, the palpebral fissure height and ocular protrusion was more increase. But in 21 ages the palpebral fissure was some decrease. Also in 19 ages the protrusion was some decrease. On the other hand, the right and left eye have not statistically significant.
