Abstract
It is often difficult to find consistent changes in the retinal microvasculature due to large intersubject variability. However, with a novel application of AOSLO imaging, it is possible to visualize parafoveal capillaries and identify AV channels noninvasively. AV channels are disrupted in type 2 diabetes, even before the onset of diabetic retinopathy.
