Overview
Brief Summary
Recent case-control studies have proven that the retinal vascularization mirrors the cardiac vascularization: more the coronary network is altered, more the density of retinal vessels is reduced. No studies have yet been realised in primary prevention. This study aims to demonstrate a link between the density of the retinal vascularization and the calcium score, which is currently the gold standard for the classification of cardiovascular risk in primary prevention. Thus, a simple image of the retinal vascularization could predict the cardiovascular risk of a patient. OCT angiography would become a major aid in the classification of cardiovascular risk in asymptomatic patients.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Correlation between retinal vascular density and calcium score
Time Frame: Day 1
Comparison between values of calcium score and presence of vascular abnormalities in retina. Calcium is scored as follows: * Coronary Artery Calcium \[CAC\] = 0 : very low risk * CAC = \[1-100\[ : low risk * CAC = \[100-400\[ : moderate risque * CAC = \[400-1000\[ : high risk * CAC = \> 1000 : very high risk
