Description

The choroid is the layer of tissue and blood vessels between the retina and the sclera that carpets most of the interior of the eye starting at the optic nerve and ending at the ciliary body. The tissue includes pigment cells to absorb light and reduce glare. Blood vessel density is greatest at the periphery of the choroid and decreases toward the center. Source: Regenstrief LOINC
