Age-Related Choroidal Atrophy and Choroidal Neovascularization

Abstract
The choroid is a highly vascular, pigmented tissue located between the retina and sclera. The structure and thickness of choroid can be assessed by recently developed optical coherence tomography technologies. Age-related choroidal atrophy is a choroidal pathology that affects the elderly population and often accompanies and sometimes mimics age-related macular degeneration. Patients with age-related choroidal atrophy have a better visual function, but have a higher risk of developing glaucoma.

Keywords: Choroid, choroidal atrophy, age related choroidal atrophy, age-related macular degeneration
