    The study assessed choroidal alterations in 218 eyes of 109 Chinese young adults using ultra-widefield SS-OCTA.

  • 2

    High myopia eyes exhibited significant reductions in choroidal thickness and Sattler-Haller layer vessel density across multiple subfields.

  • 3

    Choroidal thickness was thickest centrally and thinnest inferonasally, with vessel density patterns varying by region.

  • 4

    Choroidal thickness negatively correlated with axial length and positively correlated with spherical equivalent in several subfields.

  • 5

    The study highlights region-specific choroidal changes associated with varying degrees of myopia in young adults.
