Neovascular Glaucoma Due to Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion Combined with Branch Retinal Artery Occlusion

Neovascular Glaucoma Due to Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion Combined with Branch Retinal Artery Occlusion

Branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO) and branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) rarely cause neovascular glaucoma (NVG). A 58-year-old woman with hypertension and type 2 diabetic mellitus complained of progressive visual loss in her right eye for the previous 3 months. At initial examination, visual acuity was 20 / 63 in the right eye. Angle neovascularization was observed and the intraocular p...

Branch retinal vein occlusion.

Retinal vein occlusions (RVO) are the second commonest sight threatening vascular disorder. Branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) and central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) are the two basic types of vein occlusion. Branch retinal vein occlusion is three times more common than central retinal vein occlusion and- second only to diabetic retinopathy as the most common retinal vascular cause of visu...

Branch 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...

Combined branch retinal vein and artery occlusion in toxoplasmosis.

A 22-year-old man complained of low visual acuity and pain in his left eye for five days. His ophthalmological examination revealed 2+ anterior chamber reaction and a white, poorly defined retinal lesion at the proximal portion of the inferotemporal vascular arcade. There were retinal hemorrhages in the inferotemporal region extending to the retinal periphery. In addition, venous dilation, incr...
