Characterizing right-angled vessel in macular telangiectasia type 2 with structural optical coherence tomography

Abstract We investigated the structural findings on spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) related to the presence of right-angled vessels (RAV) in patients with macular telangiectasia (MacTel) type 2 with severity 3 in Korea. A retrospective multicenter cross-sectional study was cond...
