Does Glaucoma Share Common Pathogenesis with Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion?
BACKGROUND To evaluate the observed prevalence and the optic nerve head (ONH) characteristics of normal tension glaucoma (NTG)-suspect eyes in branch retinal vein occulusion (BRVO) eyes in Korean population. METHODS This was a retrospective observational study. We investigated 445 BRVO eyes that were diagnosed in the retina clinic of Samsung Medical Center between March 2005 and December 2011...
متن کاملNeovascular Glaucoma Due to Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion Combined with Branch Retinal Artery Occlusion
Branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO) and branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) rarely cause neovascular glaucoma (NVG). A 58-year-old woman with hypertension and type 2 diabetic mellitus complained of progressive visual loss in her right eye for the previous 3 months. At initial examination, visual acuity was 20 / 63 in the right eye. Angle neovascularization was observed and the intraocular p...
متن کاملBranch retinal vein occlusion.
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...
متن کاملBranch Retinal Vein Occlusion followed by Central Retinal Vein Occlusion
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...
متن کاملBranch Retinal Vein Occlusion: Pathogenesis, Visual Prognosis, and Treatment Modalities
In branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO), abnormal arteriovenous crossing with vein compression, degenerative changes of the vessel wall and abnormal hematological factors constitute the primary mechanism of vessel occlusion. In general, BRVO has a good prognosis: 50-60% of eyes are reported to have a final visual acuity (VA) of 20/40 or better even without treatment. One important prognostic fa...
