Assessment of macular vessel density by optical coherence tomography angiography after sub-scleral trabeculectomy in patients with primary open angle glaucoma

OCTA revealed significant postoperative improvement in deep macular vessel density and FAZ metrics following SST with MMC. These findings highlight the vascular benefits of surgical IOP reduction in restoring macular microcirculation among patients with POAG.
