Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
The authors aimed to evaluate choroid and inner neural layers in people previously recovered from Covid-19 compared to healthy controls using optical coherence tomography (OCT) over a six-month period. They recruited 96 people: 56 with Covid-19 at least three months...
Choroid changes in amblyopic, fellow and control eyes

Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
In this study the authors aimed to evaluate choroidal changes in the hyperopic anisometropic eyes of children by comparing amblyopic and fellow eyes, and control eyes, using a binarization method – analysis of enhanced depth imaging with OCT (EDI-OCT) using...
Changes in the choroid after atropine for amblyopic and fellow eyes

Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of atropine on the thickness and structure of the choroid between amblyopic and fellow eyes. This study included 16 patients: five males, 11 females. Median age at ocular coherence tomography...
Comparison of retinal pigment epithelium-choroid graft surgery and anti-VEGF therapy in patients with wet AMD

Retina / Uvea / Vitreous
This was a randomised intervention study in wet AMD patients to investigate benefits of free RPE-choroid graft transplantation surgery versus (continuation of) anti-VEGF treatment. Twenty patients who met the inclusion criteria were subdivided into three subgroups, i.e. RPE tears involving...
Practical Handbook of OCT (Retina, Choroid, Glaucoma)
With the rapid development and expansion in the usage of optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology there is always demand for a new OCT publication on the bookshelves. The operation and acquisition skills required are more easily acquired than for the...OCT choroidal signs for congenital retinal pigment epithelium hypertrophy

Choroid, Congenital hypertrophy of the pigment epithelium, Optical coherence tomography
Congenital hypertrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium (CHRPE) on ocular coherence tomography (OCT) has the characteristic sign of RPE thickening and hyper reflectivity. However, the underlying choroid characteristics remain under researched. This retrospective study utilised data from an ophthalmic oncology...

Choroidal thickness, enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomograph, quiescent phase, sarcoidosis, uveitis
This is the first study to evaluate the choroidal thickness in patients with ocular sarcoidosis during the quiescent phase using enhanced depth imaging optical coherence tomography (EDI-OCT) and comparing with normal subjects. Ocular sarcoidosis may affect the choroidal circulation (occlusive...

Retina / Uvea / Vitreous
This was a prospective cross-sectional study assessing changes in blood flow velocity in patients with age-related macular degeneration (AMD) using a retinal function imager. Sixty eyes with wet AMD were compared to 53 control eyes and the average blood flow...
Amblyopic choroidal thickness

Paediatric Ophthalmology / Strabismus
The authors studied choroidal thickness in 38 paediatric cases (76 eyes) with unilateral amblyopia to evaluate the differences between amblyopic and fellow eyes, and compare them with 19 healthy control subjects (38 eyes). Anisometropic amblyopia was present in 17 cases...
