Full-Thickness Retinochoroidal Incision in the Management of Central Retinal Vein Occlusion

Figure 2

Preoperative color fundus of patient 7 demonstrates diffuse retinal hemorrhage (a). Fluorescein angiography shows a nonperfusion area at the nasal lower retina (b). Color fundus 4 months postoperatively shows a marked decrease in retinal hemorrhage (c); fluorescein angiography demonstrates revascularization toward the originally nonperfused area (d) and retinochoroidal venous anastomosis. Color fundus 4 months postoperatively (e) and fluorescein angiography 18 months later shows almost complete reperfusion of the original ischemic area (f).
