Description The choroidal watershed zone is a region of reduced blood flow due to its distal location at the interface between the major posterior ciliary arteries supplying the choroid and may be vulnerable to decreases in perfusion pressure in NAION and glaucoma. We sought to establish the degree of reduced blood flow in this region and corresponding sectors of the optic nerve head lying with it using laser speckle flowgraphy (LSFG).
