At presentation, a diagnosis of CRVO was made based on the ocular findings, which included a swollen disc, multiple retinal hemorrhages and tortuous, dilated retinal vessels (a). Fluorescein angiography demonstrated disc hyperemia, ME and blocked hypofluorescence compatible with the hemorrhages (b). Optical coherence tomography demonstrated significant ME with subretinal fluid (c). Following treatment with 3 bevacizumab injections, the ocular findings had disappeared, and the fundus examination and fluorescein angiography returned to normal (d, e). The macular edema had resorbed completely and normal macular architecture was restored (f).

Fundus examination of the left eye was significant for a swollen disc, numerous retinal hemorrhages, macular edema (ME) and tortuous dilated retinal vasculature (fig. 1a). Acapillary nonperfusion was not observed (fig. 1b). A significant ME was demonstrated by optical coherence tomography (fig. 1c). Following these 3 injections, VA in the left eye had improved to 20/20, the hemorrhages had resorbed, and the fundus examination returned to normal (fig. 1d, e). The ME had also been completely resorbed with the restoration of a normal macular architecture (fig. 1f).
