Augenärztlich muss immer ein Glaukom oder eine okuläre Hypertension ausgeschlossen sowie nach vaskulären Systemerkrankungen oder Risikofaktoren gesucht werden. In der Behandlung kommen intravitreal applizierte Medikamente, Laserkoagulation oder eine Kombination in Frage. Abstract As retinal vein occlusion is such a complex systemic disease, its underlying risk profile should be narrowed down individually. Ophthalmologists should always rule out glaucoma or ocular hypertension while also screening the patient for systemic vascular diseases or risk factors in particular. Intravitreally applied medication (VEGF inhibitors or steroids) and laser coagulation (focal or panretinal) or a combination thereof can be considered to treat such retinal anomalies.
