Retinal and Choroidal Vascular Biomarkers Are Correlated With the Degree of Myopia
Adaptive changes in the choroidal vessels to supply more oxygen to the inner retina can explain why myopic patients exhibit a decreased risk of diabetic retinopathy and its vision-threatening complications despite being vulnerable due to inadequate retinal vascular coverage.
