Interconnecting capillaries are visible in OIT cross-section generated with AO-FIO. Upper image: ROI used to compute the OIT cross-section. Lower image: Corresponding OIT cross-section. Arrows highlight the three-dimensional position of interconnecting capillaries. Blue arrow: capillaries connecting the superficial vascular plexus (SVP) and the deep vascular plexus (DVP). Red arrow: capillaries connecting the SVP and the intermediate vascular plexus (IVP). Green arrow: capillaries connecting the SVP with the radial peripapillary capillary plexus (RPCP). Retinal image acquired at 7° Nasal.
