Optical coherence tomography angiography of retinal vasculature in recovered COVID-19 patients compared to age and ethnic matched controls.

OCTA provides non-invasive high-resolution imaging of the retinochoroidal vascular network. Compared with conventional imaging, OCTA can demonstrate precise microvascular structural alterations in the retinal vessels before visible on SD-OCT or fundus examination. When matched for age and ethnicity, patients with a history of mild COVID illness manifested alterations in vessel density.
