QUANTITATIVE ASSESSMENT OF THE FOVEAL AVASCULAR ZONE USING OPTICAL COHERENCE TOMOGRAPHY ANGIOGRAPHY BEFORE AND AFTER SURGERY FOR IDIOPATHIC EPIRETINAL MEMBRANE

摘要

Purpose: To investigate, using optical coherence tomography angiography, the foveal avascular zone (FAZar), the FAZ perimeter (FAZp), the acircularity index of the FAZ (FAZai), and the density of vessels surrounding the FAZ (FAZvd) before and after idiopathic epiretinal membrane surgery, and associations of these parameters with postoperative best-corrected visual acuity, letter score gain, and central foveal thickness.
