Abstract:Retinal vein occlusion(RVO)is the most prevalent retinal vascular disease except for diabetic retinopathy. Macular edema(ME)is a common complication of RVO which is the major causation of vision loss. The pathogenesis of ME is associated with vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)which induced by ischemia and hypoxia after venous obstruction and destruction of blood-retinal barrier caused by inflammation. Therefore, intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF medications or corticosteroids is the most common in the clinical treatment.
