Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO)
RVO Overview
Just like all body parts, your eye relies on blood flow for nutrients and oxygen. A blockage in veins or arteries can prevent blood from leaving the retina, triggering retinal vein occlusion.
RVO typically occurs in one eye and can significantly affect your vision. Schedule an appointment if you notice blurry vision or other related vision impairments.
How to Respond to RVO
Have you noticed any signs or symptoms of RVO shown on this page? Then you should contact an eye doctor immediately for an appointment. These vision changes can be temporary or permanent, depending on your response.
RVO can lead to other vision complications like retinal detachment if not addressed promptly. Our ophthalmologists can diagnose retinal vein occlusion through a comprehensive eye exam. It’s also the best way to find a solution.
Signs of Retinal Vein Occlusion:
- Sudden change in vision (blurry, partial loss, or complete loss)
- Progressively worsening vision
- Immediate loss of vision
