In most cases, an underlying cause is not known.\u00a0 It is more common in patients with glaucoma, high blood pressure, arteriosclerosis, and diabetes.<\/p><p>When the central retinal vein is blocked, the circulation through the retina is greatly reduced and often resulting in swelling of the center of the retina which is called macular edema leading to blurring of vision. A few patients have a spontaneous improvement in vision with time.

Eye drops, and glasses do not help to improve vision. Patients with macular edema need ongoing follow-up and regular injections in order to preserve vision. In about one-third of all cases, a severe form of glaucoma called NEOVASCULAR GLAUCOMA develops and the eye pressure can rise to very high levels which necessitates a laser treatment for prevention.\u00a0 Often a VEGF blocker injection into the eye also may be needed.\u00a0 These treatments can help to prevent or control the glaucoma but they do not improve the vision when it is affected by high eye pressure.<\/p><p>There is no reason to limit one\u2019s activities, to avoid reading, to avoid watching TV, etc. However, due to blurring of vision and hampered depth perception one should be very careful doing anything which requires the ability to judge distances such as working around machinery, climbing on ladders and scaffolds, pounding nails, pouring hot liquids, and driving. It is relatively uncommon for a similar process to affect the other eye, and blurry vision in one eye does not in any way harm the \u201cgood eye\u201d. A patient should come back sooner than scheduled if there is a marked decrease in vision or if the eye becomes painful.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e783189 e-con-full animated-slow e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-child\" data-id=\"e783189\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInRight&quot;,&quot;animation_delay&quot;:200}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b488a7b elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b488a7b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"761\" height=\"852\" src=\"https:\/\/kavintechcorp.in\/nnwps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Treatment-options-for-CRVO.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-21685\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kavintechcorp.in\/nnwps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Treatment-options-for-CRVO.webp 761w, https:\/\/kavintechcorp.in\/nnwps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Treatment-options-for-CRVO-268x300.webp 268w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 761px) 100vw, 761px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f5c9a51 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f5c9a51\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f7aa06e e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-child\" data-id=\"f7aa06e\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-622302c e-con-full animated-slow e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-child\" data-id=\"622302c\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;,&quot;animation_delay&quot;:200}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d5ca548 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"d5ca548\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"579\" src=\"https:\/\/kavintechcorp.in\/nnwps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Branch-Retinal-Vein-Occlusion-BRVO.webp\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-21714\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kavintechcorp.in\/nnwps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Branch-Retinal-Vein-Occlusion-BRVO.webp 918w, https:\/\/kavintechcorp.in\/nnwps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Branch-Retinal-Vein-Occlusion-BRVO-300x217.webp 300w, https:\/\/kavintechcorp.in\/nnwps\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Branch-Retinal-Vein-Occlusion-BRVO-768x556.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-25f29d2 e-con-full animated-slow e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-child\" data-id=\"25f29d2\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInRight&quot;,&quot;animation_delay&quot;:200}\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a30544a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a30544a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion (BRVO) <\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-553b63a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"553b63a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>BRVO is a blockage of one or more branches of the central retinal vein, which runs through the optic nerve.

Treatment options include intravitreal injection (injection of medicine into the eye) and laser.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p><p>Intravitreal injection of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) inhibitors such as Lucentis (FDA approved), Eylea (FDA approved), and Avastin (used off-label) or steroids such as triamcinolone and Ozurdex (FDA approved) can help maintain or improve vision.<\/p><p>Laser is sometimes used to treat macular edema but is now considered a second-line treatment for most cases based on visual outcomes and limitations. For instance, if there is significant hemorrhage in the retina, laser cannot be performed until the hemorrhage resolves spontaneously, which takes few months.<\/p><p>In response to a BRVO, some patients will develop an abnormal growth of fragile new blood vessels (retinal neovascularization) on the surface of the retina months or years after initial diagnosis. These blood vessels generally do not have any associated symptoms unless they rupture and bleed. In general, rupture is spontaneous and unpredictable, and if there is a significant amount of hemorrhage into the vitreous cavity of the eye, vision can be dramatically reduced. Although the blood may resolve spontaneously in some cases, it can take weeks or months depending on the severity. If neovascularization is detected on a follow-up office visit, laser can be administered to shrink the abnormal fragile vessels in order to minimize the risk of vitreous hemorrhage and vision loss. Laser does not guarantee that there will be no future haemorrhaging, but it does significantly lower this risk. Occasionally if there is a very severe or persistent (non-clearing) vitreous hemorrhage, vitrectomy surgery may be warranted to remove the blood.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Retinal Vein Occlusion Home > &nbsp; Specialities > &nbsp; Retina Eye Care > &nbsp; Retinal Vein Occlusion Retinal Vein Occlusion Retinal vein occlusion is a blockage in the ocular blood vessel that can result in vision loss.
