Abstract
PurposeTo evaluate the mean platelet volume (MPV) and the neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in patients with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). MethodsThirty patients with branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO group) and 27 age and sex matched subjects (control group) were included in the study. MPV and NLR parameters obtained from peripheral blood were recorded. ResultsThe mean age was 62.6±12.3years in BRVO and 63.5±8.2years in control group. The BRVO group consisted of 13 males and 17 females and the control group included 12 male and 15 female subjects. The mean MPV values were 8.64±2.01 fL in BRVO group and 8.5±1.26 fL in control group. NLR was 2.24±0.79 and 1.89±0.64 in BRVO and control groups respectively. The difference between two groups in terms of MPV and NLR was not statistically significant. ConclusionMPV and NLR were found to be not affected in branch retinal vein occlusion patients.
