[Study] Is there a connection between Migraines and Retinal Microvascular changes?
We've got a fascinating article from the Journal of Neurology that delves into the topic of migraines and the incredible role of Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA).
Migraines are notorious for their cyclic and often debilitating nature. Did you know that up to a third of migraine sufferers experience what's known as an "aura"?
Now, here's where OCT-A enters the spotlight! The introduction of Optical Coherence Tomography- Angiography (OCT-A) is a game-changer. This innovative technique enables the non-invasive study of blood flow in the retina and choroid. While previous studies hinted at changes in retinal vessel densities in migraine patients, OCT-A provides a more in-depth look into these changes.
