Choroidal vasculature in a normal eye and its enlarged view. Choroidal vasculature in a normal eye as revealed in a spectral domain optical coherence tomography scan (A). Plate (B) demonstrates an enlarged view of the area marked by a dashed rectangle in plate (A). The choriocapillaris layer appears as a hyporeflective band just next to the outer border of the retinal pigment epithelium (red arrowheads). Haller's layer (large choroidal vessels) is usually seen as reflectance-free round structures with a large diameter at the outermost parts of the choroid (white arrows). Sattler's layer (medium choroidal vessels) is located between the choriocapillaris and Haller's layer (white braces) and appears more reflective, probably because of the presence of more compact vessel walls and denser interstitial tissue.
