purpose: to evaluate the efficacy of radial optic neurotomy (ron) combined with or without intravitreal triamcinolone acetonid (ivta) injection in the management of central retinal vein occlusion (crvo). methods: this non-randomized clinical trial was conducted on 23 patients with crvo, who underwent ron with or without ivta injection. preoperative and postoperative best corrected visual acuity...

OBJECTIVES To describe the 15-year incidence of retinal vein occlusion (central retinal vein occlusion and branch retinal vein occlusion) and associated risk factors. METHODS A population-based study where branch retinal vein occlusion and central retinal vein occlusion were detected at baseline (n = 4068, 1988-1990) and three 5-year follow-up examinations by grading 30 degrees color fundus p...

We report a case of combined central retinal vein occlusion and branch retinal artery occlusion. A previously healthy 47-year-old male presented with decreased vision in the right eye after completing a half marathon. A fundus exam and retinal imaging revealed a combined central retinal vein and branch retinal artery occlusion. In the present report, we review the literature and discuss the pos...

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...

purpose : to report a patient with branch retinal vein occlusion (brvo) and serologic evidence of primary cytomegalovirus (cmv) infection case report : we have reported a 27-year-old male with a complaint of sudden decrease in right eye vision starting a few days before. results : immunoglobulin g (igg) seroconversion indicated primary cmv infection. conclusion : involvement and obstruction of ...

We developed a new surgical treatment in which a microneedle is used for retinal endovascular cannulation to treat eyes with central retinal vein occlusion by flushing thrombus out of the central retinal vein as it passes through the lamina cribrosa. The eyes of 12 consecutive patients (12 eyes) with central retinal vein occlusion were successfully treated using this novel treatment. At 24 week...

A retrospective study of 95 patients with retinal vein occlusion was carried out to determine the clinical presentation and pattern of distribution in the local Malaysian population. There was no significant difference found in its distribution with regards to sex. In comparing branch retinal vein occlusion with central retinal vein occlusion, no significant differences were found in its racial...

a 41-year-old man was referred with a complaint of visual loss in his left eye and his best corrected visual acuity was 20/80. slit lamp examination showed arborizing conjunctival vessels and dry eye. fundus examination and fluorescein angiography revealed a non-ischemic central retinal vein occlusion. cardiovascular, rheumatologic, and hematologic work up showed no abnormal findings. an ascert...

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...
