Microvasculature Features of Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada Disease Revealed by Widefield Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography

Background: Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease is a multisystem autoimmune disorder which could induce bilateral panuveitis involving the posterior pole and peripheral fundus. Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) provides several advantages over traditional fluorescence angiography for revealing pathological abnormalities of the retinal vasculature. Until recently, however, the OCTA field of view (FOV) was limited to 6 × 6 mm 2 scans. Purpose: This study examined retinal vasculature and choriocapillaris abnormalities across multiple regions of the retina (15 × 9 mm 2 wide field, macular, peripapillary regions) among acute and convalescent VKH patients using a novel widefield swept-source OCTA (WSS-OCTA) device and assessed correlations between ...
