dc.description.abstractTo evaluate the choroidal and retinal layers with optical coherence tomography (OCT) and retinal microvascular structures with optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients.
dc.description.abstractIn this prospective, cross-sectional and comparative study, a total of 35 SLE patients and 35 healthy control participants were included. SLE patients who were using hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and/or immunosuppressive agents are evaluated with OCT and OCTA. SLE patients who have no HCQ maculopathy observed in OCT were included in the patient group.
dc.description.abstractMean macular thickness and ganglion cell inner plexiform layer (GC-IPL) thicknesses were thinner in the patient group. When the parameters obtained with OCTA were evaluated, vessel (VD) and perfusion density (PD) were significantly lower in the patient group. Central foveal thickness and foveal avascular zone parameters were negatively correlated. In addition, VD and PD, and GC-IPL thicknesses were positively correlated.
dc.description.abstractApplication of OCTA for the evaluation of microvasculature in SLE patients may be useful in subclinical changes.
