Peripapillary optical coherence tomography as an alternative to fluorescein angiography for monitoring Behcet’s retinal vasculitis

Abstract To study the correlation of OCT parameters including central subfield macular thickness (CSMT), peripapillary retinal thickness (PRT), and peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (PNFLT) with fluorescein angiography (FA) in evaluation of inflammatory activity in Behcet’s retinal v...
