15.3Failed and Unadopted Treatments for HCRVO
Prophylactic PRP for the prevention of anterior segment neovascularization (ASNV) or posterior segment neovascularization (PSNV) after ischemic HCRVO has been advocated.47 No randomized, prospective, controlled clinical trial has been done to compare outcomes of prophylactic PRP to observation in this setting. Based on a lower rate of subsequent ASNV or PSNV in ischemic HCRVOs than after ischemic CRVOs, and the results of the CVOS, which did not show improved outcomes with prophylactic PRP, this suggested treatment has not been tested or adopted.56
15.4 Summary of Key Points
•The number of failed and unadopted treatments for RVO is large.
•Many of the failed and unadopted treatments have never progressed beyond pilot studies.
•Animal models of RVO are useful in testing new ideas for treatments before attempting them in humans.
•Many of the same ideas are tried in all types of RVO. In some cases (e.g., grid laser for ME), the approach works for one type (e.g., BRVO) but not another (e.g., CRVO). In other cases, the approach works for all types (e.g., IVI of anti-VEGF drugs for ME associated with all types of RVO).
•If the complications of LCRVA could be reduced and the success rate improved, it could become a viable treatment for RVO with ME because it provides sustained benefits when it works and is less expensive than serial anti-VEGF drug injections.
