Treatment of acute central retinal artery occlusion

B R Younge et al. Mayo Clin Proc. 1978 Jun.

Abstract

Central retinal artery occlusion very often leads to irreversible visual loss and seldom responds to treatment. Retrograde cannulation of the supraorbital artery followed by irrigation with anticoagulants and vasodilators may be of value in the early management of this problem. A case in point is described.
