Is there a relationship between hypoparathyroidism and retinal microcirculation?

Reduced retinal vessel density in patients with surgically induced hypoparathyroidism supports the hypothesis that parathyroid hormone is associated with regulation of vascular homeostasis, including macular microcirculation. Increased perfusion in the peripapillary area may suggest an early subclinic effect of hypoparathyroidism.
