Ischemic retinal vasculitis is an inflammation of retinal blood vessels associated with vascular occlusion and subsequent retinal hypoperfusion.

Ischemic retinal vasculitis can be idiopathic or secondary to ...

The search for an underlying etiology should be approached in a multidisciplinary fashion based on a thorough history, review of systems, p...
