Abstract
Background: A nocturnal non-dipping pattern has been associated with hypertension-mediated organ damage (HMOD), morbidity and mortality. Retinal imaging through application of modern technologies including optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) can provide detailed insights into early vascular damage. In this observational study, we investigated the relationship of microscopic vascular density in the retina measured with OCT-A and nocturnal blood pressure (BP) dipping.
