Ranibizumab for Macular Edema Secondary to Central and Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion in Patients Younger Than 50 Years of Age

Figure 3

Optical coherence tomography structural scan of a 34-year-old patient with macular edema secondary to central retinal vein occlusion. The scan in (a) shows the onset of the typical cystoid macular edema, complicated with subretinal fluid and disruption of the outer retinal layers. At 12-month follow-up (b), the edema appears resolved with restoration of the normal foveal anatomy and with a significant improvement in visual acuity, from 20/50 to 20/20 Snellen equivalents. Outer retinal layers turn out to be reconstituted.
