PREsENT thinking about the relations between central retinal vein occlusion and glaucoma derives mainly from the pioneer work of Verhoeff (1913), Salzmann (1933), and Duke-Elder (1940, 1957, 1959). Since their papers on this subject many reports have been added to the literature. Recently, Landolt (1958) has published his work on histology and Dobree (1957) clinical studies on the incidence of ...

purpose: to evaluate the outcomes of vitrectomy for complications of branch retinal vein occlusion (brvo). methods: this retrospective study, included patients who underwent vitrectomy surgery due to the complications of brvo over an 11-year period. visual acuity and retinal condition were evaluated before and after surgery. results: the study included 30 eyes of 30 patients with mean age of 64...

A randomised controlled study of photocoagulation compared with no treatment in central retinal vein occlusion is reported. Forty-eight patients were allocated into treated and control groups by a random procedure 3 months after their first visual symptoms. For the analysis they were subdivided into (1) ischaemic type, and (2) hyperpermeability-response macular-oedema type of central retinal ve...

Background: Retinal vein occlusions are one of the most common form of retinal vascular disorders and could lead to vision loss due to macular edema, macular ischemia and sequelae from neovascularization. Anti-venous endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) treatment is the choice strategy of treatment for patients with macular edema secondary to central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). There is an ...

PURPOSE To develop a methodology for cannulating porcine retinal venules using a robotic assistive arm after inducing a retinal vein occlusion using the photosensitizer rose bengal. METHODOLOGY Retinal vein occlusions proximal to the first vascular branch point were induced following intravenous injection of rose bengal by exposure to 532nm laser light delivered by slit-lamp or endolaser prob...
