In the present study, we evaluated macular and peripapillary choroidal thickness in LHON patients. Overall, we found that both macular and peripapillary choroidal thicknesses increased in the acute stage. Moreover, we showed a decreased macular choroidal thickness in the chronic stage. Most importantly, we have evidence that the increased thickness of axons preceded the changes of choroidal thickness, suggesting that one event may lead to the other.
