Research Article: The Effect of Myopia on Vessel Density in Glaucomatous Patients by Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography
Abstract:
It’s no secret that myopia is a leading cause of blindness. Around . billion individuals worldwide have trouble seeing far away without corrective lenses because of myopia. Retinal blood vessel density and blood flow in the retinal arteries are reduced, as shown in laser Doppler and (OCTA) in mild to severe myopic eyes. High myopia (HM) is an important cause of blindness in young adults. According to the accepted definition, when the spherical equivalent of the refractive error exceeds six diopters (D) and/or axial length exceeds . mm.
