Sympathetic denervation for 6 weeks resulted in increased choroidal thickness, vascular luminal area, numbers of large venules and large arterioles, and capillaries in the outer nuclear layer. Capsaicin pretreatment prevented sympathectomy-induced increases in choroidal thickness, vascular luminal area and large venules and large arterioles, whereas pterygopalatine ganglionectomy was without effect."
