introduction: there are two basic types of vein occlusion, branch retinal vein occlusion (brvo), in which one of the branches of the main vein is blocked, and central retinal vein occlusion (crvo) in which the main vein of the eye is blocked.  vein occlusions are associated with various illnesses and often occur in elderly. the etiological causes of these diseases in the young people remained c...

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 ...

data suggest that the multifocal electroretinography (mferg) may have a role in the assessment of patients with central retinal vein occlusion (crvo). to explore the mferg responses in patients with crvo. mferg responses were recorded at 61 discrete retinal locations from both eyes of 25 patients diagnosed with retinal vein occlusions within 3 weeks of onset. the latencies and amplitudes of ave...

BACKGROUND Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) is one of the common retinal disorders causing severe visual impairment. OBJECTIVE To study the clinical profile, risk factors and visual outcome in central retinal vein occlusion. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-four eyes of 74 patients with central retinal vein occlusion were retrospectively enrolled during the period of one year. All the pat...

purpose: to determine the frequency of risk factors for retinal vein occlusion (rvo) in patients referred to a private clinic in rasht during 1995-2001. methods: this cross-sectional study was conducted on all patients with rvo who were referred to the clinic. sex, age, hypertension (htn), cardiovascular diseases (cvd), diabetes mellitus (dm), hypercoagulable states, glaucoma, smoking, hyperlip...

Retinal vein occlusion is an eye condition commonly seen by retinal specialists. It is second only to diabetic retinopathy as a cause of visual loss due to retinal vascular disease. There are two forms of retinal vein occlusion, branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) and central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). While there are similarities in the pathogenesis and clinical nature of these two events...

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...

purpose: to investigate aqueous humor nitric oxide (no) levels in patients with branch retinal vein occlusion (brvo) and central retinal vein occlusion (crvo) and to compare these with age-matched controls. methods: eight consecutive patients with brvo and 16 patients with crvo were included in this study. aqueous humor specimens were obtained within 21 days of diagnosis. samples of aqueous hum...

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...

   Introduction: Retinal vein occlusion  is a common vascular disorder disrupting vision. Two basic types of RVO are branch retinal vein occlusion and central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO).  Retinal vein occlusion is a multifactor process including systemic illness and local retinal factors.RVO may be associated with atherosclerotic risk factors. We analyzed the role of 2 dimensional transthor...
