The Choroid in Health and Disease

The investigation of choroidal dynamics has been gaining increasing and critical interest in the recent years due to its pervasive involvement in the pathogenesis and progression of numerous sight-threatening chorioretinal disorders. Choroidal structural, circulatory, or inflammatory perturbations are now recognized as a core etiology in multiple conditions including age-related macular degeneration, pathological myopia, central serous chorioretinopathy and related pachychoroid disorders, hypertensive and diabetic eye disease, and diverse posterior uveitides. This Article Collection, "The Choroid in Health and Disease", gathers cutting-edge research illuminating the complex physiological and pathological states of this essential tissue.
