Ultra wide field fluorescein angiography provides visualization of nonperfusion in eyes with central retinal vein occlusion. Eyes with neovascularization on the day of the angiogram were found to have significantly larger areas of retinal nonperfusion compared with eyes without neovascularization. A prospective study is indicated to know if early treatment of peripheral retinal nonperfusion in CRVO improves outcomes.

At 4 months, there was no evidence of worsening macular ischemia in either group.

In this division ultra wide field angiography has become the investigation of choice (over traditional angiography) in cases of intermediate and posterior uveitis.

There remains no proven intervention that consistently prevents or reverses visual loss from diabetic macular edema in all patients. A variety of promising new medical and surgical therapies are under investigation, but further research is required to determine their role alone or in combination.

A pilot study showed that preliminary normative CST, MT, and MV values were obtained by Cirrus high-definition optical coherence tomography. The authors propose that CST ranges from 216.8 μm to 308 μm in normal eyes. Older age and female gender were associated with thinner MT.
