| Description |
Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) causes acute retinal ischemia, which leads to nonreversible retinal infarction if the retinal vascularization is not restored rapidly. The diagnosis is easily made clinically in a patient presenting with acute visual loss, an ipsilateral relative afferent pupillary defect, retinal edema with attenuation of the retinal arteries and a cherry red spot. |
