Retinal vascular plexuses and interconnecting layers. (a) Color fundus photograph demonstrates two  mm regions of scan (blue square); (b) the OCTA en face images are arrayed from the most superficial on top to the deepest at the bottom; (c) the cartoon depicts the anatomical relationships between arterial and venous systems in the two vascular plexuses and the interconnecting layers. RPC: radical peripapillary capillaries; SVC: superficial vascular complexes; DVC: deep vascular complexes; CC: choriocapillaris.
