Please note that in cases where the Field of View (FOV) was not reported, it was described by the figure(s) published in the given study. Y: yes, N: no; N/A: not available, VSL: vessel segment length, S: short segments (<100 pixels or <400μm), L: long segments (100-200 pixels or 400-800μm), “Long (mixed)”: mostly long segments with some short segments visible in the illustration shown in the reference. A/V crossing: arterio-venous crossing, AMD: age-related macular degeneration, NPDR: non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy, DME: diabetic macular edema.
