Evaluation of macular blood flow after intermittent intravenous infusion of high-dose corticosteroids (pulse therapy) in patients with thyroid-associated orbitopathy (TAO) using angio-OCT.

Pulse therapy treatment can change macular BFI. In particular, two months alter pulse therapy, all the patients show an increase in macular vascular blood flow in each angiographic level. According to our results, angio-OCT analysis of the macular BFI may be a useful tool in the follow-up of TAO patients after pulse therapy.
