Microvascular alterations in children with optic disk drusen evaluated by optical coherence tomography angiography
Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology Feb 28, 2021
Alarcón-Tomas M, Kudsieh B, Lopez-Franca EC, et al. - In the present study, the researchers sought to evaluate changes in vessel density (VD) in children with optic disk drusen (ODD) using swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography. It was a cross-sectional study of 27 eyes with ODD compared with age-matched controls. No significant differences have been observed for VD in the macular region. No significant differences in ganglion cell layer thickness were observed. Impaired VD was noted in the peripapillary nasal CC in patients with ODD; this impairment was correlated with a reduced retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness. In patients with ODD, nasal SCP VD and RNFL thickness were moderately correlated.
