Choroidal and retinal vascular changes after horizontal rectus surgery
The authors used wide field swept-source OCT angiography (SSOCTA) to evaluate changes in retinal and choroidal blood flow before and after horizontal rectus muscle surgery. They aimed to characterise the haemodynamic impact of extraocular muscle surgery on the posterior pole...
