OCT delineates macular changes at a stage when fundus biomicroscopy and fluorescein angiography are not very informative. The anatomical cause for the increase in MT i.e., SRD and/or CME is also well delineated. Non-ischemic maculae show an early and more rapid decline in MT compared with ischemic occlusions. An increase in MT at 3 months on OCT in BRVO patients could be an indication of a possible ischemic course.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
