Optical cohorence tomography angiography findings in carotid artery stenosis.

Aim: To investigate vascular density (VD) changes in the superficial (SCP) and deep capillary plexus (DCP), radial peripapillar capillary plexus (RPCP), Foveal avascular zone (FAZ) and thickness changes of peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (ppRNFL) and choroid (CT) using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) ipsilateral eyes of patient with internal carotid artery stenosis (ICAS) and to compare the obtained values with kontralateral eyes of patients with İCAS and healthy individuals.

Methods: This prospective cross-sectional case-control study was conducted in 43 patients with a diagnosis of unilateral ICAS and 47 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects. The patients were divided into three groups.
