Age-related assessment of foveal avascular zone and surrounding capillary networks with swept source optical coherence tomography angiography in healthy eyes

Learning Objectives Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to: Describe the overall relationship between retinal vascular parameters and foveal avascular zone (FAZ) architecture and age in normal healthy eyes over a wide age range, according to a cross-sectional study using swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS OCTA). Determine the relationship between retinal vascular parameters and FAZ architecture and age in normal healthy eyes according to macular region and specific decades of life, according to a cross-sectional study using SS OCTA. Identify clinical implications of the relationship between retinal vascular parameters and FAZ architecture and age in normal healthy eyes over a wide age range, according to a cross-sectional study using SS OCTA.
