PURPOSE: To investigate the characteristics of the retinal periarterial capillary-free zone (paCFZ) with wide-field swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography (SS-OCTA) in eyes with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO).
METHODS: Seventy treatment-naïve eyes with BRVO and 35 healthy eyes were included. The paCFZ areas, artery calibers, and areas of the major arteries in the unaffected quadrants of BRVO eyes were measured in 12 × 12-mm SS-OCTA images and compared with those of the contralateral eyes and healthy eyes. Other multimodal imaging data were collected.
RESULTS: There were no significant differences in the unaffected artery caliber or area among the three groups (all P > 0.05). The unaffected paCFZ areas and the ratios of the unaffected paCFZ area to the counterpart artery area (paCFZ/artery area) of the major arteries were significantly larger than those in the contralateral or healthy eyes (all P < 0.05). Subgroup analysis revealed that the paCFZ/artery area value differed significantly between ischemic and nonischemic BRVO eyes (P < 0.01). The paCFZ/artery area value was positively correlated with logMAR best-corrected visual acuity, symptom duration, central macular thickness, and retinal nonperfusion area in BRVO.
CONCLUSIONS: Quantitative SS-OCTA measurements confirmed enlarged paCFZs along the unaffected major retinal arteries in BRVO eyes. The paCFZ parameters were correlated with symptom duration, retinal ischemia, and visual function.
TRANSLATIONAL RELEVANCE: Retinal periarterial capillary-free zones in BRVO can be non-invasively measured by SS-OCTA, assisting in clinically identifying retinal ischemia and evaluating visual function.
