Central Retinal Vein Occlusion

Central Retinal Vein Occlusion (CRVO) occurs when the main vein that drains blood from the retina becomes blocked. This blockage can lead to increased pressure and swelling in the retina, causing vision problems. Symptoms may include sudden blurred or distorted vision in one eye. CRVO is often associated with health issues like high blood pressure, diabetes, or glaucoma. Treatment options may include medications, laser therapy, or managing underlying health conditions to help restore or stabilize vision. It's important to see an eye doctor if you experience sudden changes in your vision.
