Functional and structural outcomes at the foveal avascular zone with optical coherence tomography following macula off retinal detachment repair
Clinical Ophthalmology Oct 15, 2020
Maqsood S, Elalfy M, Abdou Hannon A, et al. - Researchers conducted this prospective, comparative observational study to compare the functional and the anatomical changes in the retinal vasculature in the foveal avascular zone utilizing optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) after successful retinal reattachment repair and compare this data with retinal thickness and postoperative visual recovery. Twenty-eight eyes of 14 patients (14 eyes with the macula off retinal detachment repair and 14 fellow healthy eyes) visiting the Ophthalmology outpatient clinic at Research Institute of Ophthalmology, Giza, Egypt between February 2018 to August 2018. Findings suggested that optical coherence tomography and OCTA are valuable noninvasive imaging tools for monitoring and predicting structural changes in the foveal avascular zone during the recovery phase after successful retinal reattachment involving the macula.
