In the isolated PP patients, thickening of RNFL and increased VD in the macula and optic disc region were recognized under the effect of androgens compared to the control group. In these patients, early microvascular changes can be detected noninvasively by means of OCT and OCTA. These findings suggest a potential link between androgen exposure and retinal microvascular alterations; however, further studies are needed to explore their clinical implications.
