Background: The study on Values of Normal Inner Intercanthal Distance (IICD), Outer Intercanthal Distance (OICD), Canthal Index (CI), Interpupillary Distance (IPD), Fronto-Occipital Distance (FOD), Body Height (BH) and Body Weight (BW) of Afizere Ethnic Group, Plateau State, Nigeria was aim to establish standard parameter values to aid diagnosis and treatment of facial injuries or congenital malformation such as telecanthus and hypertelorism among Afizere people. The study will correlate IICD and OICD to CI while FOD and BW to BH for treatment and identity. The study will provide standard values to head and neck surgeons for treatment of craniofacial abnormality and generate regression formula for estimation of CI and BH Methodology: A total of 600 samples were collected from 302 females and 298 males’ subjects. The age limit of 18-32years was selected for study. Ethical clearance was obtained from Ebonyi State University Abakaliki, Nigeria. Anthropometric instruments were used to collect data of Normal IICD, OICD, CI, IPD, FOD, BH and BW.
