Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography of the Macula in Adults With a History of Preterm Birth.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the fovea microvasculature in adult subjects with history of preterm birth using optical coherence angiography (OCTA).

PATIENTS AND METHODS: In this retrospective study, macular OCTA images were obtained from adult subjects with a history of preterm birth. The presence of the foveal avascular zone (FAZ) and its size was determined.

RESULTS: Ten eyes from six subjects with ages ranging from 26 years old to 65 years old were evaluated. A distinct FAZ was not observed in three eyes (30%). The FAZ was small in other eyes, ranging from 0.07 mm2 to 0.18 mm2 .

CONCLUSION: Adult subjects with a history of preterm birth may have persistent foveal vasculature in the FAZ. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2018;49:122-125.].
