Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion: Do We Really Need to Treat in Haste

Abstract

BACKGROUNDIt is important to know the natural history of branch retinal vein occlusion in order to understand that any benefit attributed to intervention of any kind is due to the effect of the treatment alone and not due to natural course of the disease. In view of so many treatment options available, it becomes important to understand the natural outcome in case of BRVO, so one can decide when to intervene.
