LB1112 Peripheral retinal vascular leakage in moderate to severe psoriasis: A pilot study

The impact of psoriatic inflammation on the eye is not fully understood. In this pilot study we investigated if peripheral vascular leakage (PVL), a feature of retinopathy, was evident in patients with psoriasis using Ultra-Wide-Field Fluorescein Angiography (UWFFA). We performed a pilot cross-sectional, IRB-approved, prospective study comparing UWFFA in patients with psoriasis to healthy age-matched controls. Subjects with active or history of moderate to severe plaque psoriasis underwent a complete ophthalmologic exam along with optical coherence tomography and UWFFA.
