Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion

In branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO), fluorescein angiography (FA) is used to detect areas of retinal non-perfusion, indicating ischemia. Laser photocoagulation is often employed to treat these ischemic areas, preventing neovascularization and further complications. This targeted treatment reduces the risk of vision loss and stabilizes retinal function.

Diabetic retinopathy: DPC non-perfusion

In non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR), Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) can reveal areas of nonperfusion in the deep capillary plexus. These areas indicate compromised blood flow and ischemia, which are critical for assessing disease severity and guiding treatment decisions to prevent progression to more advanced stages.

Old BRVO

Old Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion (BRVO) can lead to degenerative cystoid areas visible on OCT. En-face minimum intensity projection imaging helps to identify these cystoid spaces. OCTA reveals areas of non-perfusion and abnormalities in the foveal avascular zone (FAZ), providing detailed insights into the vascular changes and retinal health post-BRVO.

Retinal ischemia

Inner retinal thinning observed on Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) can indicate chronic retinal ischemia or damage. Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (OCTA) showing areas of nonperfusion correlates with reduced blood flow and can further confirm the extent of ischemic damage. These findings are critical for diagnosing and monitoring conditions like diabetic retinopathy or retinal vein occlusion.
