Summary

Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) may lead to series of complications including retinal ischemia, macular edema (ME) and induce vision impairment. Intravitreal injection of Ranibizumab (0.5mg) has been proved to be a safe and effective method for the treatment of RVO-ME. In this study, different treatment regimens of Ranibizumab is applied and the effects is observed at 1-6 months to explore the best regimen for RVO. After 6 months, anti-VEGF therapy and/or laser photocoagulation is used to explore whether laser photocoagulation can maintain the therapeutic effect of Ranibizumab or reduce the injection number.

Conditions

  • Retinal Vein Occlusion
  • Treatment
  • Photocoagulation Burn to Retina
  • Ranibizumab

Interventions

DRUG

Ranibizumab

Patients will receive intravitreal injection of Ranibizumab 0.5 mg (1+PRN or 3+PRN) according to the study until month 6. Then, patients will received Ranibizumab PRN only or laser photocoagulation with Ranibizumab PRN after month 6.

DEVICE

laser photocoagulation

After month 6, patients will received Ranibizumab PRN only or laser photocoagulation with Ranibizumab PRN according the re-randomization at month 6.
