Evaluation of choroidal thickness measurements in patients with marked nasal septal deviation

Abstract Introduction: Chronic upper airway obstruction due to marked nasal septal deviation may cause chronic hypoxia. It may change the balance of the sympathetic-parasympathetic system and may affect blood flow in the choroid. Objective: To assess choroidal thickness measurements of patients with ma...
