To characterize the total retinal blood flow determined by laser speckle flowgraphy (LSFG) of healthy subjects.This prospective cross-sectional study was conducted at the Nagoya University Hospital. One hundred fifteen right eyes of 115 healthy subjects (mean age: 39.4 ± 16.1 years) were studied. Th...
