Aflibercept treatment for macular edema with and without serous retinal detachment due to branch retinal vein occlusion

Research progress on diagnosing retinal vascular diseases based on artificial intelligence and fundus images

“…In the early stage, the symptoms are characterized by a sudden loss of vision to varying degrees; mild patients may have no symptoms or only a little shadow ( Pur et al, 2023 ), and with the progression of the disease, RVO patients have serious visual impairment ( Zhang X. T et al, 2022 ; Sood et al, 2022 ). Typical fundus changes in RVO patients include retinal hemorrhage, tortuous retinal vein dilatation, extensive retinal capillary non-perfusion area, and macular edema ( Irgat and Ozcura, 2023 ). Late patients may have complications such as vitreous hemorrhage, traction retinal detachment, and neovascular glaucoma, resulting in severe visual acuity loss and even blindness ( Altintas and Ilhan, 2023 ; Patil et al, 2023 ).…”
