Overview

Retrospective observational study shows long-term outcomes of anti-VEGF therapy for macular oedema in retinal vein occlusion, indicating low ocular safety risks.

Key Points

  • To report visual acuity outcomes and treatment patterns in patients with macular oedema secondary to retinal vein occlusion treated with anti-VEGF.
  • Retrospective observational study
  • Data collected from 16 NHS ophthalmology sites in England over 60 months
  • Included patients with branch, central, or hemi-retinal vein occlusion
  • VA improvements noted at Month 6, but lower at Month 60 across BRVO and CRVO/HRVO eyes
  • Lower annual number of anti-VEGF injections observed with longer follow-up
  • Ocular safety incidents, including endophthalmitis, retinal tears, and retinal detachment were <1%
