Automated evaluation of parapapillary choroidal microvasculature in thyroid eye disease.

Changes in peripapillary microvascular perfusion may play a role in the development of DON. As the severity of TED increases with clinical activity, so do the changes observed in peripapillary parameters. The decrease in RPC density may be due to compression caused by optic disc oedema, which may result in reduced blood flow. The increase in PPCMv density may be related to factors such as orbital congestion.
