Abstract :

Aim: To study the Fundus Fluorescein Angiography (FFA) and Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) findings in detecting early and late RVO. Materials and Methods: A total of 60 diagnosed patients of RVO from the outdoor of a Tertiary Care Centre were selected for the study. Detailed history and a thorough ocular examination including Visual Acuity, Intraocular Pressure, Amsler Grid Chart, Slit Lamp Examination, Slit Lamp Biomicroscopy with +90D lens, Indirect Ophthalmoscopy, FFA and OCT imaging were performed. Laboratory investigations including R/E blood, RBS, Serum creatinine and ECG were done. Results: Present study observed the role of FFA and OCT in detecting the various presentations, early and late RVO changes were also studied. Macular edema was the most common OCT finding. Findings of OCT were confirmed by FFA when statistically compared with FFA, OCT was found to be highly sensitive but less specific tool to detect RVO changes. Conclusion: OCT may be a good complementary imaging technique to FFA regarding the diagnosis of RVO. Using FFA as a standard reference, OCT has high sensitivity but only moderate specificity in detecting RVO lesions.
