Association of Optical Coherence Tomography and Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography Retinal Features With Visual Function in Older Adults.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Although there is abundant evidence relating neuronal and vascular optical coherence tomography (OCT) and OCT angiography (OCTA) measures to retinal disease, data on the normative distribution of retinal features and their associations with visual function in a healthy, older, community-based population are sparse.

Objectives

To characterize the normative OCT and OCTA measures in older adults and describe their associations with visual function.

Design, setting, and participants

This was a cross-sectional, observational study conducted from May 17, 2017, to May 31, 2019. The study included a community-based sample. Participants in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities study from Jackson, Mississippi (all self-reported Black participants), and Washington C
