Abstract

Retinal vein occlusions are still one of the leading retinal vasculopathies with a strong impact on the quality of life. Despite the success in symptomatic treatment with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) medication, no real causal therapy has been developed so far. As most of the pathogenetic changes have been observed in the vitreoretinal interface, actual therapeutic strategies are being focused on this area. Modern surgical techniques may help to release vitreovascular traction, stop cytokine activation and improve retinal oxygenation.
