Altered fovea in AQP4-IgG-seropositive neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders

Conclusions Foveal morphometry reveals a wider and flatter fovea in NMOSD in comparison to MS and HC. Comparison to MS and accounting for ON suggest this effect to be at least in part independent of ON. This supports a primary retinopathy in AQP4-IgG–seropositive NMOSD.
