The effect of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment on retinal oxygenation
Abstract Purpose Little is known about the effects of retinal detachment on oxygen extraction from retinal vessels. The role of oxygen supply from the retinal vessels in a detached area has not previously been investigated in vivo in humans. Retinal oximetry is a non‐invasive measurement of retinal oxygen saturation.
