A Review of Current Literature on Central Retinal Artery Occlusion: Its Pathogenesis, Clinical Management, and Treatment

The ocular analogue of a cerebral stroke is central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), a medical emergency concerning the eyes. Most patients experience substantial acute vision loss with a visual acuity of 20/400 or worse, resulting in decreased quality of life (QoL) and decreased functional ability....

description The ocular analogue of a cerebral stroke is central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), a medical emergency concerning the eyes. Most patients experience substantial acute vision loss with a visual acuity of 20/400 or worse, resulting in decreased quality of life (QoL) and decreased functional ability. An impending cerebral stroke and ischemic heart disease are also more likely. The four distinct clinical entities that make up CRAO are non-arteritic CRAO, transitory non-arteritic CRAO, non-arteritic CRAO with cilioretinal artery sparing, and arteritic CRAO. Depending on the CRAO type, clinical traits, visual results, and treatment all vary greatly. Contrary to current belief, there is a spontaneous improvement in the optical field and vision, mainly in the first week. The likelihood of instinctive development in optical acuity in the first seven days varies greatly. The pathogenesis, epidemiology, and medical features of CRAO will be described in this review, along with present and potential management future options.
