Sulfur 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 کاملBranch Retinal Vein Occlusion followed by Central Retinal Vein Occlusion
A 59-year-old woman with history of noninsulin dependent diabetes mellitus and systemic hypertension presented with decreased vision in her left eye since 2 months ago. Bestcorrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 20/20 and 20/400 in the right and left eyes respectively. Relative afferent pupillary defect was negative. Anterior segment examination was unremarkable except for mild posterior subcapsula...
متن کاملRetinal Pathology after Central Retinal Vein Occlusion.
OCCLUSION of the central retinal vein causes incomplete haemorrhagic infarction of the inner layers of the retina. Haemorrhagic infarction describes a situation in which the venous backflow of an area of tissue is interrupted. As a result the flow of blood has to stop; ischaemia and resulting increase of vascular permeability lead to retinal oedema and extensive haemorrhages. The central retina...
متن کاملHeritable thrombophilia and hypofibrinolysis. Possible causes of retinal vein occlusion.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether heritable thrombophilia and hypofibrinolysis were risk factors for retinal vein occlusion. DESIGN Measures of thrombophilia (increased likelihood of thrombus formation) included anticardiolipin antibodies (IgG and IgM), the lupus anticoagulant (including dilute Russell viper venom clotting time), antigenic proteins C and S, and homocysteine. Polymerase chain rea...
متن کاملCentral retinal vein occlusion and pseudoexfoliation syndrome
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the existence of pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXF) as a risk factor for the development of central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). METHODS This was a retrospective, comparative study of the prevalence of pseudoexfoliation in three groups of patients: 48 patients with CRVO, 164 patients with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO), and 70 control...
