Radiation Retinopathy

Abstract Purpose of the Review. In this review, we bring together recent developments in detection and management radiation retinopathy. Recent Findings Research into OCT-angiography for retinopathy has led to identification biomarkers early radiation-induced changes retinal microvasculature including focal capillary loss vascular remodeling. These are detectable after exposure but prior emergence classical clinical markers historically used diagnose The ability detect subclinical may present need redefine diagnostic criteria which ultimately impact management. Additionally, explorations prophylactic treatment following development newer anti-VEGF agents more options specialists prevent or treat vision vasculopathy from exposure. Summary Currently, injections and/or intravitreal steroids remain primary a diagnosis However, mainstay strategy have not yet been identified. future, new anatomical endpoints be identified with while therapy reduce initial retina.
