Arterial insufficiencies: Central retinal artery occlusion

Undersea and Hyperbaric medicine, 2022
Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is a relatively rare emergent condition of the eye resulting in sudden painless vision loss. This vision loss is usually dramatic and permanent, and the prognosis for visual recovery is poor. A wide variety of treatment modalities have been tried over the last 100 years with little to no success, with the ...

Iatrogenic ophthalmic artery occlusion and retinal artery occlusion

Progress in Retinal and Eye Research, 2020
Iatrogenic ophthalmic artery occlusion (IOAO) is a rare but devastating ophthalmic disease that may cause sudden and permanent visual loss. Understanding the possible etiologic modalities and pathogenic mechanisms of IOAO may prevent its occurrence. There are numerous medical etiologies of IOAO, including cosmetic facial filler injection, intravascular

Central Retinal Artery Occlusion

Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging Retina, 1987
ABSTRACT Injecting steroid crystals into orbital inflammatory lesions produces a prolonged, high level of drug activity at the target tissue. This technique appears helpful in controlling orbital inflammations in problem cases while reducing the chance of steroid related systemic side effects.

Cilioretinal Arteries and Retinal Arterial Occlusion

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1979
A series of 187 cases of retinal artery occlusion was reviewed. 107 of which were central retinal artery occlusions (CRAO). Of the 107 cases, 28 (26%) showed some degree of macular sparing owing to a patent cilioretinalartery. The patients with cilioretinal sparing regained variable degrees of visual acuity, depending on the amount of the ...

Retinal artery occlusion

Survey of Ophthalmology, 1995
A 54-year-old man presented with an acute painless loss of vision. He had a three-month history of malaise, weight loss, and episodic sweating. Physical examination showed a thin, febrile man with a petechial rash over the lower legs. Cardiac auscultation revealed an apical thrill and pansystolic murmur. Dental hygiene was poor.
