“…16 In contrast, the present study included 44,603 patients with RVO from a population of 48 million persons. 18 However, the temporal associations between RVO and cardiovascular disease risk were not explored. Furthermore, the results of 6 large population-based studies clearly showed that patients with RVO have an increased 10-year risk of cardiovascular disease by calculating the Framingham risk score.…”

“…[28][29][30][31][32] Although the association between the retinal vasculature and cardiovascular diseases is not entirely clear, emerging evidence suggests that changes in the retinal microvasculature might be a sign or clue of cerebral small vessel disease, 28,29,31 which is characterized by lacunar infarcts and white matter lesions. In addition, numerous studies have previously verified the methodology of a claims database, 6,9,10,15,16,18,21,24 and we also attempted to verify the incident patients with retinal diseases in our previous studies. 30 RVO; of these, occurrence of RVO at the point of the arteriovenous nipping (crossing) and adjacent retinal hemorrhage is a pathognomonic feature of RVO.…”

“…Regardless of age, treatment of contributing systemic vascular conditions is important to prevent both life‐ and sight‐threatening complications, including involvement of the fellow eye . RVO may be independently associated with increased cardiovascular mortality . In male smokers, the 10‐year relative risk of developing cardiovascular complications after RVO is more than four‐fold that of controls.…”

Increased physical activity and, interestingly, moderate alcohol consumption decrease the risk of central RVO.…”

Retinal vein occlusions are important causes of loss of vision; indeed, they are the second most common retinal vascular disease, following diabetic retinopathy. For this reason alone, primary eye-care providers must be well versed in diagnosis and management. Risk factors, though not universally agreed upon, include but are not limited to advancing age, systemic hypertension, arteriolarsclerosis, diabetes, hyperlipidaemia, blood hyperviscosity, thrombophilia, ocular hypertension and glaucoma. Typically, visual loss is secondary to macular oedema and/or retinal ischaemia. Treatment modalities have included observation, systemic thrombolysis and haemodilution, radial optic neurotomy, chorioretinal anastomosis, vitrectomy, laser photocoagulation and intravitreal injection of anti-inflammatory and, most recently, anti-vascular endothelial growth factors.

Retinal vascular diseases are mostly caused by systemic vascular diseases. In some cases the systemic disease is already known but in other patients ocular anomalies often provide the first indications of a systemic disease. Treating patients with vascular fundus diseases requires close cooperation between ophthalmologists and specialists in other fields and deciding which routine and specialized diagnostic examinations are necessary in light of the potential risk factors involved requires interdisciplinary communication. This article aims to provide an overview of the most important vascular retinal diseases and which examinations are required to ensure an accurate diagnosis. The retinal vascular diseases with the highest frequency or clinical relevance are hypertensive retinopathy, diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion and retinal artery occlusion.
