Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Inclusion criteria for the RVO group: 1. Clinical diagnosis of unilateral RVO (BRVO or CRVO), accompanied by macular edema. 2. Age: 18 to 80 years old. 3. Received at least one intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF, and have complete baseline and post-treatment follow-up data. 4. High-quality OCT and OCTA examinations were conducted both at baseline (before treatment) and during follow-up. 5 The medical records are complete, including the results of BCVA, IOP, slit lamp and ophthalmoscopy examinations. Inclusion criteria for the control group (healthy eye group & healthy control group) : 1. Age and gender matched with those of the RVO group. 2. BCVA > 0.63. 3. IOP= 21mmHg. 4. The fundus examination was normal, with no eye diseases such as RVO, AMD, or DR. 5. High-quality OCT and OCTA images.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Exclusion criteria for the RVO group: 1. Bilateral RVO. 2. Accompanied by other eye diseases that may affect macular structure or blood flow, such as diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, pathological changes of high myopia, glaucoma (or IOP > 21 mmHg), uveitis, etc. 3. Refractive media opacity (such as severe cataracts and vitreous hemorrhage) leads to poor OCT/OCTA image quality. 4. Had received macular laser photocoagulation, vitreous surgery or hormone therapy before anti-VEGF treatment. 5. Incomplete follow-up data or loss to follow-up. Exclusion criteria for the control group (healthy eye group & healthy control group) : 1. Any known retinal or optic nerve diseases. 2. Have a history of ophthalmic surgery (except phacoemulsification for cataracts). 3. Refractive media opacity. 4. Systemic diseases (such as uncontrolled hypertension and diabetes) may affect the microcirculation of the retina.
