Is optic nerve head swelling of prognostic value in central retinal vein occlusion?

Abstract

ONHS is most likely of no prognostic value in CRVO.

Visual improvement in central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) following intravitreal injections of bevacizumab (Avastin®)

“…1981). It is notable, however, that clinical optic nerve swelling is most likely of no prognostic value (Hvarfner & Larsson 2003).…”

Oscillatory potential findings in patients with acute ischaemic central retinal vein occlusion

“…There is evidence that the cone peak times, especially the cone b-wave peak times in both photopic and scotopic 30 Hz flicker ERGs, could be a suitable method of identifying ocular ischaemia and constitute reasonable criteria for the prediction of neovascularisation development 20 21. It was suggested that ischaemic CRVO should be defined by a peak time of ≥37 ms in the 30 Hz flicker ERG 22 23. Kjeka et al reported that a peak time of >35.0 ms (>0.5 SD from mean) for photopic cone b-wave in 30 Hz flicker was a good indicator of ocular neovascularisation 24.…”
