“…[2][3][4][5] It has also been suggested that even in I-BRVO patients with intact foveal avascular zones, improvement with treatment may not be significantly different from that seen in the natural history of I-BRVO patients as a group. [6][7][8] Clearly, the patients in this study benefited from treatment, most remarkably Cases 1 and 3 where ischaemia extended into the foveal avascular zone. When comparing these results with previous studies, it is noteworthy that in each case, the grid laser treatment applied was more intense than Branch Vein Occlusion Study Group 2 recommendations.…”

“…The vision-limiting complications include macular oedema, retinal capillary non-perfusion, and vitreous haemorrhage from neovascularisation. [7][8][9] Macular oedema is the major cause of visual disturbance in BRVO, occurring in about 60% of cases. 10 The degree of macular involvement determines the level of visual impairment.…”

“…Neovascularização de íris é uma complicação rara da oclusão venosa de ramo, parece que pacientes com diabetes (com ou sem retinopatia) têm um risco aumentado (13) . A neovascularização é particularmente difícil de reconhecer em oclusão venosa de ramo porque os colaterais que freqüen-temente se desenvolvem assemelham-se a neovasos.…”

“…Finkelstein demonstrou que 91% dos pacientes com edema macular isquêmico, ou seja, sem vazamento angiográfico, apresentam melhora visual espontânea quando comparados àqueles com edema angiográfico (29%) (13) . Portanto, pacientes com espessamento macular e ausência de perfusão apresentariam melhor prognóstico visual.…”
