Perifoveal Microcirculation in Macular Oedema with Retinal Vein Occlusion
Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) is a common retinal vascular disease that often results in macular oedema, which is the most frequent cause of visual impairment in these patients [1]. Therefore, it is important to understand the vascular and haemodynamic abnormalities that underlie the progression of macular oedema in CRVO. Remky et al. [2] found that the perifoveal blood flow velocity (B...
متن کاملRelationship between grades of macular perfusion and foveal thickness in branch retinal vein occlusion
BACKGROUND To study the relationship between retinal perfusion around the macula and the foveal thickness in branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). METHODS Seventy-four eyes of 74 consecutive patients with BRVO were enrolled. We developed a new grading system to evaluate the status of retinal perfusion around the macula in three grades: full perfusion area (FPA), partial perfusion area (PPA), ...
متن کاملMetamorphopsia Associated with Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion
PURPOSE To apply M-CHARTS for quantitative measurements of metamorphopsia in eyes with acute branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) and to elucidate the pathomorphology that causes metamorphopsia. METHODS This prospective study consisted of 42 consecutive patients (42 eyes) with acute BRVO. Both at baseline and one month after treatment with ranibizumab, metamorphopsia was measured with M-CHART...
متن کاملRetinal branch vein occlusion: a study of argon laser photocoagulation in the treatment of macular oedema.
A control trial is reported which demonstrates that treatment with argon laser photocoagulation to certain patients with macular oedema following a branch vein occlusion does not alter significantly their visual prognosis. It confirms that patients with an intact perifoveal capillary arcade have a better prognosis than those with a broken arcade.
متن کاملThe effect of arteriovenous sheathotomy on cystoid macular oedema secondary to branch retinal vein occlusion.
BACKGROUND Arteriovenous (AV) sheathotomy, a potential treatment for branch retinal vein occlusion (BVO), surgically separates retinal vessels at an AV crossing. Relief of the aetiological obstruction, with resolution of cystoid macular oedema (CMO), may result in improved visual acuity. METHODS A retrospective review of consecutive cases of AV sheathotomy for BVO was undertaken. Eyes were ca...
