Popis: | AIM: To analyse macular microvascular alterations in myopic choroidal neovascularization (mCNV) and the efficiency of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) therapy for mCNV by optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). METHODS: A total of 123 patients were included in this retrospective study, divided into mCNV group, high myopia (HM) group, and normal group at the Affiliated Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2017 to January 2019. Superficial vessel density, deep capillary density, foveal avascular zone (FAZ) area, A-circularity index (AI) and vessel density around the 300 μm width of the FAZ region density (FD) and the area of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) lesion (only for mCNV group) were measured on 3×3 mm2 OCTA images. FAZ area was corrected for axial length. Central macular thickness (CMT) was measured on OCT in mCNV group. Compared the parameters on OCTA of 3 groups and pre-anti-VEGF and post-anti-VEGF at 1, 2, 3, and 6mo follow-up in mCNV group. RESULTS: There were significant differences among 3 groups in superficial vessel density, deep capillary density and FD (P |
