Purpose: There is evidence that choroidal blood flow (ChBF) is regulated in a complex way during changes in ocular perfusion pressure (OPP). We hypothesized that ChBF regulates better in response to changes in mean arterial pressure (MAP) than in intraocular pressure (IOP). Methods: Eighteen volunte...
