Vascular flow of choriocapillary was markedly reduced in subjects with TAO compared with healthy subjects (49.78 ± 4.5 vs. OFTALMOLOGIA (OCULISTICA) Nato a Savona il. The correlation analysis in the TAO group showed a significant correlation between the choroidal thickness and EUGOGO clinical score (r = 0.84, p = 8.44032E-07). The subfoveal choroid was significantly thicker in TAO patients than the control eyes (285.6275 ± 32.5 μm compared with 135.89 ± 19.8 μm, respectively, p = 0.0089). We also obtained angiographic scans at 3 different consecutive levels (L1, L2, and 元) below the choriocapillary.

The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in choroidal thickness and in choroidal vascular blood flow in patients with thyroid-associated orbitopathy (TAO) and their relationship with clinical features and disease activity using spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) and Angio-OCT technology.Įighteen patients and control subjects underwent a complete eye examination, OCT, and Angio-OCT.
