Relationship between retinal capillary vessel density of OCT angiography and intraocular pressure in pig

Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate density change in the retinal capillary plexus during intra ocular pressure (IOP) elevation in vitrectomized pigs’ eyes using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). Eight eyes of eight micro pigs received vitrectomy and the IOP was control...
