Notes:
The better prognosis in non-ischemic BRVO may be due to preserved blood flow around the fovea, allowing maintenance of photoreceptor metabolism and oxygen supply.
In ischemic cases, capillary occlusion and irreversible neuroretinal damage are already present, which may limit visual recovery even if macular edema improves.
Differences in reactivity of the deep capillary plexus (DCP):
- In non-ischemic cases, VEGF suppression may induce a stronger physiological vasoconstrictive response
- In ischemic cases, the vasculature is already damaged, resulting in a blunted response
