Study the change of retrofoveolar choroidal thickness measured by optical coherence tomography during aerobic exercise inducing an increase in systolic blood pressure in healthy subjects.Ten healthy participants will perform an exercise (riding a bicycle ergometer) and will be examined with EDI-OCT. Each participant will be scanned before exercise, during the exercise and afterwards at 0 and 5 min. Each OCT measurement will be coupled to the arterial blood pressure evaluation.
Currently there is a growing interest in the study of the choroid in the pathogenesis of many ocular pathologies such as central serous chorioretinitis1, age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and myopia. Moreover, the recent development of new imaging methods allows the exploration of the normal and pathological processes of the choroid. In particular, the Enhanced Depth Imaging (EDI) mode in Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) provides cross-sectional imaging of the choroid and in vivo measurement of its thickness. Understanding the factors that would modify the choroidal thickness would make it possible to better understand the pathophysiology of many chorioretinal pathologies and would help to guide therapeutics in the future.
However, systemic changes induced by physical activity, and in particular changes in systolic blood pressure, could be responsible for changes in the choroidal blood flow and thus in the choroidal thickness. The study consists in testing ten patients who will perform an exercise testing as part of the practice of a sportive activity. Patients will undergo an OCT in EDI mode to measure the retrofoveolar choroidal thickness during the exercise.
Each OCT image will be coupled to the evaluation of blood pression and heart rate.
Patients are treated in the usual way but the study is an interventional study, with minimal risks and constraints, because of the imaging (OCT image in EDI mode).

| Healthy volunteers | Experimental | After an ophthalmic consultation, the healthy volunteers are summoned to perform the exercise test in the form of an aerobic exercise on an ergometric bicycle with 3 different intensity levels calculated on the theoretical maximum aerobic power. The OCT examination in the EDI mode, centered on the macular and peri-papillary region, as well as the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and the heart rate. In healthy patients performing aerobic physical exercise in the Department of Sports Medicine , the investigators will perform the following Intervention :

| Measurement of macular choroidal thickness before, during and after standardized aerobic exercise inducing a standardized increase in arterial systolic pressure | Measurement of macular choroidal thickness before, during and after standardized aerobic exercise inducing a standardized increase in arterial systolic pressure: the choroidal thickness will be determined thanks to the OCT as the vertical distance between the outer line of the pigmentary epithelium and the internal line of the sclera centered on the fovea thanks to the EDI measurement mode. | 1 day |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Measurement of systolic and diastolic blood pressure | Before, during and after the effort The effort is with sustained intensity and maximum intensity. It's a standardized aerobic exercise inducing an increase in systolic arterial blood pressure and arterial diastolic blood pressure. An OCT examination in EDI mode focused on the systolic and diastolic blood pressure are taken before the start of the exercise test, during the phase of moderate effort, sustained and maximum, at the end of the effort and 5 minutes after stopping. |
