Microvasculature dropout (MvD) is a novel finding seen in optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA), which is characterized by a localized dehiscence of the choriocapillaris in the parapapillary atrophy area. Disc hemorrhage (DH) is an important factor often associated with the development and especially progression of glaucoma. Here, we present 2 cases of MvD progression with DH.
