When a vein in the retina becomes blocked, it's called retinal vein occlusion. This can give you a blurry vision or even sudden permanent blindness in that eye. It's similar to retinal artery occlusion, which is sometimes called an eye stroke. in the retina, arteries and veins cross over each other. Treatment for the complications of retinal vein occlusion may include focal laser treatment if macular oedema is present. Injections of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-vegf) drugs into the eye. These drugs may block the growth of new blood vessels that can cause glaucoma.
