Abstract

Context: Comparison of characteristics of macular edema and BCVA in STBRVO and ITBRVO and their response to therapy. Settings and design: Institutional setting, Observational study design. Methods and material: 77 eyes of 77 patients of BRVO who met the inclusion criteria were studied for central macular thickness and BCVA both prior to and after Anti-VEGF therapy. Results: Mean BCVA in ST BRVO pre-injection in LogMAR was 1.0093 units and post-injection was 0.50 in cases of IT BRVO it was 0.874 and 0.421 respectively. Commensurate reduction in
CMT occurred in both STBRVO and IT BRVO of 216.87 microns and 232.81 microns. Conclusion: Both are similar in clinical behavior and response to Anti-VEGFs.

Keywords: ST BRVO; IT BRVO; Anti-VEGFs; Central macular thickness.
