ABSTRACT.The treatment of central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) is still a subject of debate. Medical therapy efforts, as well as retinal laser photocoagulation, have mostly dealt with management of the sequelae of CRVO, and have shown limited success in improving visual acuity. The unsatisfactory results of such therapeutic efforts led to the development of new treatment strategies focused on the surgical treatment of the occluded retinal vein. The purpose of this review is to summarize the outcomes of commonly reported surgical treatment strategies and to review different opinions on the various surgical approaches to the treatment of CRVO.

“…The CRA seen at RON sites may allow for more active drainage of retinal edema and hemorrhage compared to laserinduced CRA. When evaluating the effectiveness of RON for CRVO in patients <50 years of age versus those >50 in 43 patients [35], better functional results were observed in younger patients (50 vs. 30% gained 15 letters), although functional improvement remained limited in those with low baseline VA. In patients with hemicentral retinal vein occlusion, RON seems to be a potential treatment in selected patients, probably because of the more rapid appearance of chorioretinal collateral vessels, which promote faster resolution of macular edema.…”

“…The CRA seen at RON sites may allow for more active drainage of retinal edema and hemorrhage compared to laser-induced CRA. When evaluating the effectiveness of RON for CRVO in patients <50 years of age versus those >50 in 43 patients [46], better functional results were observed in younger patients (50 vs. 30% gained 15 letters), although functional improvement remained limited in those with low baseline visual acuity. In 2006, Opremcak et al [47 ]reported on 117 patients with CRVO and severe loss of vision (≤20/200) treated with PPV and RON.…”

Retinal vascular occlusive disorders constitute one of the major causes of blindness and impaired vision. There is marked controversy on their pathogeneses, clinical features and particularly their management. Recently, advances in clinical research added antivascular endothelial growth factor, corticosteroids and sustained-release implants to our armamentarium in the management of retinal vein occlusions. The purpose of our paper is to provide an update and a brief review on the current treatment options of retinal vein occlusions.
