Central Retinal Vein Occlusion

Ocular Vascular Occlusive Disorders

Abstract

In 1855, Liebreich [1] first described the clinical picture of retinal vein occlusion and called it “retinal apoplexy.” Michel [2] established it as a clinical entity resulting from thrombosis in 1878. Duke-Elder and Dobree [3] accurately summarized the state of knowledge on retinal vein occlusion in 1967 when he stated: “Since that time (von Michel’s) the condition has been the subject of almost continuous research but nevertheless, even today, many points both in the aetiology and in the intimate mechanism of the obstruction are still unelucidated.” Later advances, however, have provided a good deal of new information on various aspects of CRVO. The major problem in reviewing the information is that the majority of the reports in the literature have combined all types of retinal vein occlusions in one group, rather than describing information specifically on CRVO separately. I plan to discuss CRVO to provide the latest information on this common, important disease.
