CONTEMPORARY VIEW OF RETINAL VEIN THROMBOSES

The aim of this work was to elucidate the modern concept of retinal vein thrombosis.

In the literature review, the retinal vein thrombosis is considered as a disease with a variety of clinical forms, course types, complications and frequently an unfavourable prognosis in terms of the preservation of visual functions. There is a clear connection between eye vascular pathologies, somatic diseases and cerebrovascular pathologies.

Conclusion. The analysis of scientific sources has shown that many aspects of retinal ischemia are yet to be understood. Of particular importance is the development of effective treatment and rehabilitation schemes, including drugs for intravitreal use.
