OCTA Analysis of Macular and Papillary Perfusion After Refractive Surgery in Myopes

Refractive surgery for correction of myopia is very common nowadays. However, various refractive techniques may be associated with increase in the IOP, especially during flap creation. It is assumed that marked intraoperative IOP increase lead to macular and optic disc head circulation compromise. The purpose of this study is to assess the change of macular and papillary perfusion, using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) imaging of the macula and optic disc of myopic patients before and after various refractive surgery methods.
