Medical conditions underlying recurrence of retinal vein occlusion.
Seventeen patients with recurrent retinal vein occlusion were investigated for underlying medical conditions and compared with 61 patients with single retinal vein occlusion (26 with central, 35 with branch vein occlusion). The two study groups were comparable for age, sex, and weight. Patients with recurrence had a significantly increased prevalence rate of hypertension (88% versus 48%: p less...
متن کاملPrognosis for rubeosis iridis following central retinal vein occlusion.
The records of 57 patients with recent central retinal vein occlusion were reviewed in order to predict the development of rubeosis iridis (RI) and neovascular glaucoma (NVG) from the initial clinical examination, colour fundus photographs, and fluorescein angiograms. Twelve patients (21 %) developed both RI and NVG, and this complication appeared to be correlated most significantly with clinic...
متن کاملInvestigating the frequency characteristics of the electroretinogram signal in patients with central retinal vein occlusion
Background: Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) is the second most common retinal vascular disorder after diabetic retinopathy. In this study, we tried to examine the potentials of time-frequency methods for differentiating the eyes with CRVO. Materials and methods: Twenty patients with unilateral CRVO were included in this study. Their contralateral normal eyes were considered as the control...
متن کاملSulfur Mustard Exposure and Non-Ischemic Central Retinal Vein Occlusion
A 41-year-old man was referred with a complaint of visual loss in his left eye and his best corrected visual acuity was 20/80. Slit lamp examination showed arborizing conjunctival vessels and dry eye. Fundus examination and fluorescein angiography revealed a non-ischemic central retinal vein occlusion. Cardiovascular, rheumatologic, and hematologic work up showed no abnormal findings. An ascert...
متن کاملBilateral retinal vein occlusion and rubeosis irides: lessons to learn.
Uncontrolled hypertension is well- known to give rise to systemic complications involving multiple central organs. Artherosclerosis leads to damage of the retinal vessels wall, contributing to venous stasis, thrombosis and finally, occlusion. Retinal vein occlusions compromise vision through development of ischaemic maculopathy, macular oedema, and rubeotic glaucoma. Laser photocoagulation rema...
