Prevalence Retinal vein occlusions (RVOs) are the 2nd most common retinal vascular diseases after diabetic retinopathy.
The Beaver Dam Study reported a prevalence of 0.1% in patients older than 43 years.
A cross-sectional study from 6 US communities reported that the prevalence of CRVO was 0.2%. (the prevalence was similar across different ethnic and racial groups).
The Blue Mountains Eye Study, the 10-year cumulative incidence of CRVO in a population older than 48 years was 0.4%.
The Singapore Malay Eye Study reported a 0.2% prevalence of CRVO in the Malay population 40 to 80 years old.
The Beijing Eye Study reported that the prevalence of CRVO in a Chinese population of people 40 years and older was 0.1%.(No racial or gender predilection for the disease is apparent).
Associated systemic factors
DiabetesHypertensionHyperlipidaemiaHyperhomocysteinaemia Blood coagulation disorders:
high plasma viscosity such as due to leukaemia, myeloma, Waldenstrom’s macroglobulinaemia, myelofibrosis, changes in protein C pathway, Factor V Leiden.
Systemic inflammatory disorders(Behçets disease, polyarteritis nodosa, sarcoidoisis, Wegener’s
Granulomatosis and Goodpasture’s Syndrome) Glaucoma Shorter axial length Retrobulbar external compression
CRVODisc edemaIncreased dilatation
and tortuosity of all retinal veins
Widespread deep and superficial hemorrhages
Cotton wool spotsRetinal edemaCapillary non-
perfusion in all four quadrants of the retina
Classical TreatmentBranch Vein Occlusion Study, 1984, showed
that macular photocoagulation for the treatment of macular edema was superior in improving visual acuity compared with observation.
Central Vein Occlusion Study, 1995, showed that grid laser treatment of macular edema was of no visual benefit despite the elimination of macular edema in treated eyes. Observation for macular edema secondary to CRVO was the standard of care set by this study.

RETAIN studyextension of CRUISE study
The RETAIN study was an extension study for patients who completed the HORIZON study.
Only 34 patients from the BRAVO study were enrolled in the RETAIN study. On average, patients had a follow-up of 4 years.
Patients were followed monthly during the first year of the study and at least every 3 months during the second year of the study.
Reinjections were performed if intraretinal fluid was identified. Results demonstrate the excellent long-term outcomes of eyes
with macular edema secondary to BRVO.
