Three-dimensional organization of capillary networks at different eccentricities. The parafovea (A) consists of three separate plexuses, including the SVP, ICP, and DCP. The 3-mm location (B) along each of the vascular arcades also contains an additional layer—the retinal peripapillary capillary plexus (RPCP). The retina thins peripherally, where the 6-mm region (C) typically contains two distinct retinal layers, with arteries and veins running within the superficial layer. The 9-mm region (D) typically contains only a single capillary plexus, with large vessels located in a slightly more superficial plane. Scale bar = 60 µm.
