Abstract

Ultra wide field fluorescein angiography provides visualization of nonperfusion in eyes with central retinal vein occlusion. Eyes with neovascularization on the day of the angiogram were found to have significantly larger areas of retinal nonperfusion compared with eyes without neovascularization. A prospective study is indicated to know if early treatment of peripheral retinal nonperfusion in CRVO improves outcomes.
