Optical coherence tomographic angiography study of perfusion recovery after surgical lowering of intraocular pressure
Abstract We investigated the time and location of retinal perfusion recovery after surgical intraocular pressure (IOP) lowering in glaucoma by using optical coherent tomography angiography (OCTA). Seventeen patients were analyzed. The 4.5 × 4.5-mm OCTA scans centered on the disc were performed preop...
