To investigate the micro-vascular changes in choroidal structures in patients with pre- and early-stage clinical diabetic retinopathy (DR) using wide-field Swept-Source Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (SS-OCTA). This observational cross-sectional study included 131 eyes of 68 subjects that...
