Relationship between retinal vessel tortuosity and oxygenation in sickle cell retinopathy
BACKGROUND: Reduced retinal vascular oxygen (O(2)) content causes tissue hypoxia and may lead to development of vision-threatening pathologies. Since increased vessel tortuosity is an early sign for some hypoxia-implicated retinopathies, we investigated a relationship between retinal vascular O(2) c...
