Description

A central retinal artery occlusion is arguably one of the worst ocular events that can occur, given its extremely poor visual prognosis.

There are certain treatment options that we all learn in residency to try and halt a CRAO, but for the most part, many of these techniques are fairly unproven and don’t work so well.
