BACKGROUND Ocular vascular occlusions following intraocular procedures are a rare complication. We report a case series of patients with retinal vascular occlusions or anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (AION) after anterior and posterior segment surgery and demonstrate possible risk factors. METHODS Observational case series. RESULTS In ten patients, vascular occlusions were observed withi...

In recent years, with unhealthy eating habits and aging of society, there has been an increase of lifestyle-related diseases such as hypertension, hyper lipidemia, and diabetes, which are important risk factors for retinal vein occlusion (RVO), including branch RVO (BRVO) and central RVO (CRVO). Affecting an estimated 180,000 eyes per year in the United States, BRVO and CRVO comprise the second...

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...

BACKGROUND Retinal vascular disease is a rare complication of ulcerative colitis. CASE We report a patient who developed unilateral nonischemic central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) (papillophlebitis) without any other retinal vascular disease during remission of ulcerative colitis. OBSERVATIONS The best-corrected visual acuities were 1.5 OD and 0.7 OS. Dilated and tortuous retinal veins an...

Thirty patients with a reduced central vision due to diseases of the posterior pole were examined with the VERIS system developed by Sutter and Tran (Vis Res 1992;32:433-446) to characterize the topography of electroretinographic (ERG) changes in comparison to the results in 30 normal volunteers. Diagnoses included Stargardt's macular dystrophy (SMD, n = 10), age-related macular degeneration (A...

Background: The World Health Organization pronounced the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) a pandemic on March 11, 2020. Patients with COVID-19 are more likely to have multisystem thromboembolic events, such as deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary emboli. This study estimates clinical characteristics of patients central retinal occlusion (CRVO) post-COVID-19 infection in three governorates Egypt. Me...

PURPOSE To evaluate the association of axial length and posterior segment length with central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) using optical coherence interferometry. METHODS The study group consisted of 29 patients (13 female and 16 male) with unilateral CRVO who were referred to Farabi Eye Hospital. Patients with macular edema were excluded. The mean keratometry (mean K), axial lengths (AL), a...

uncontrolled hypertension is well- known to give rise to systemic complications involving multiple central organs. artherosclerosis leads to damage of the retinal vessels wall, contributing to venous stasis, thrombosis and finally, occlusion. retinal vein occlusions compromise vision through development of ischaemic maculopathy, macular oedema, and rubeotic glaucoma. laser photocoagulation rema...

TOPIC To assess the evidence for the effectiveness of interventions to improve visual acuity (VA) and prevent or treat neovascularization secondary to central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). CLINICAL RELEVANCE Central retinal vein occlusion is a common cause of visual morbidity and blindness. Many different interventions have been advocated, but the evidence justifying their use remains unclea...

Purpose. To evaluate the clinical outcomes in patients with central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) treated with full-thickness retinochoroidal incisions and to compare whether there is difference in treatment response in ischemic and nonischemic CRVO. Methods. Retrospective study of patients of CRVO receiving full-thickness retinochoroidal incisions in Changhua Christian Hospital. Fluorescein an...
