Investigation of Factors Associated with Retinal Oxidative Stress and Inflammation that affect the Foveal Avascular Zone in Healthy Eyes: An Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Study

Abstract: Purpose The size and shape of the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) can change due to retinal diseases associated with oxidative stress and inflammation, such as diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, hypertensive retinopathy and macular degeneration. Macular pigment (MP), a powerful retinal antioxidant, may confer protection. This study aims to assess the relationship, if any, between factors that may affect the superficial FAZ (i.e. blood pressure (BP), vessel density, perfusion, overweight/obesity), and possible links … Show more
