ÖZKAYA, Abdullah, BAZ, Ökkeş, TARAKÇIOĞLU, Hatice Nur

Abstract

The two main complications of central retinal vein occlusion are macular edema and neovascularizations. Intravitreal anti-vascular growth factor and corticosteroid injections are the mainstays of the current treatment of central retinal vein occlusion. In this review, we aimed to summarize the clinical studies of intravitreal ranibizumab in macular edema secondary to central retinal vein occlusion.
