Study Summary

Caffeine is the most widely consumed drinking nutrient in the world. Caffeine effects various organs and the vascular system. It decreases ocular blood flow due to vasoconstriction.

Primary Outcome

Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) will be obtained using the Avanti AngioVue High Definition (HD) OCTA by Optovue. Images will include standard 4.5mm HD disc scan, 6mm HD retina scan, regular optic nerve head (ONH) structural scan, 3D-disc baseline scan and a regular ganglion cell complex analysis (GCCA) structural scan. This will measure blood flow changes in the back of the eye by imaging vessel density in percentage before then 1 and 2 hours after caffeine.
