Abstract
- AIM: To evaluate the predicative factors of visual prognosis using optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in ischemic branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) patients with macular edema (ME) after anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) treatment. METHODS: In this retrospective analysis, data from 60 patients (60 eyes) with a definite diagnosis of ischemic BRVO with ME by fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) were studied. The eyes with ME according to spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) underwent intravitreal conbercept (IVC) and 3+pro re nata (PRN) regimen. The injection times were recorded. Two weeks after injection, fundus laser photocoagulation was performed in the non-perfusion area of the retina. The patients were followed up once a month for 6mo. The best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), foveal avascular zone (FAZ), and A-circularity index (AI), at 6mo and the baseline were compared. RESULTS: All patients showed significant improvement in BCVA from 0.82±0.32 to 0.39±0.11 logMAR (P
