Abstract

PURPOSE: Intrachoroidal cavitations (ICCs) are peripapillary pathological lesions generally associated with high myopia that can cause visual field (VF) defects. The current study aimed to evaluate a three-dimensional (3D) volume parameter of ICCs segmented from volumetric swept-source optical coherence tomography (SS-OCT) images processed using deep learning (DL)-based noise reduction and to investigate its correlation with VF sensitivity.
