No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Behcet's disease is an important cause of retinal vasculitis and vision loss in Egypt. Fluorescein angiography is the standard method of diagnosis of retinal vasculitis. OCT angiography (OCT-A) is a recently developed method that can be used in the evaluation of retinal circulation. In this study, we will test the utility of OCT-A in diagnosis and follow up of retinal vascular changes in cases diagnosed with Behcet's disease that visit the outpatient uveitis clinic of Assiut University hospital, a major tertiary center in southern Egypt, over a one year duration. Also, correlation of OCT-A changes with visual acuity and hence prognosis will be described.
