Changes in retinal circulation and choroidal thickness in patients with acute myeloid leukemia detected by optical coherence tomography angiography.

Patients with AML appear to have subclinical retinal perfusion loss and choroidal thickening in the acute phase of the disease, but this is reversible. Injury to bone marrow function may cause a decrease in retinal perfusion. Leukemic retinopathy is associated with abnormal hematologic parameters and coagulopathy.
