Systemic Arterial Stiffness and Choroidal Microvascular Insufficiency on the Structural Progression of Normal Tension Glaucoma.

In NTG eyes, GCIPL thinning was faster when choroidal MvD and high systemic arterial stiffness were present. The simultaneous presence of regional and systemic vascular insufficiency may be associated with rapid glaucoma structural progression in eyes with low baseline intraocular pressure.
