About this trial

This study aims to understand how blood flow at the back of the eye changes over time after this surgery. By studying these changes, the investigators hope to gain insights that could help improve the understanding of other eye diseases, such as age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy(PCV). This research may contribute to better treatments and outcomes for future patients.
