NCT00379223

Brief Summary

Natural evolution of severe central retinal vein occlusion with low visual acuity is very poor. A randomized clinical trial will compare troxerutin and platelet anti-aggregating agents (drug treatment) versus surgery and drug treatment. Surgery will include vitrectomy and radial optic neurotomy. The primary outcome will be vision measured 6 months after surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Proportion of patients showing an improvement of visual acuity (at least 3 lines (15 letters) in ETDRS charts)

    between pre operative examination and 6 months after randomization

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Efficacy

    between pre operative examination and 6 months after randomization

  • Mean visual acuity

    between pre operative examination and 6 months

  • Macular thickness in Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT)

  • Persistence of hemorrhages in the fundus

  • Retinal ischemia indicating pan retinal photocoagulation

    6 months after randomization

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Eligibility Criteria

Age50 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Central Retinal Vein Occlusion oedematous or hemorrhagic (at fundus exam and at fluorescein angiography)
  • Visual Acuity (VA) ≤ 20/200 with ETDRS charts
  • Decreased VA since more than 1 month, less than 3 months
  • Common care recommendations for CRVO during the period before recruitment (Control ocular pressure if associated hypertension or glaucoma ; Hemodilution if hematocrit ≥ 38% ,if no cardio-vascular contra-indication, to maintain hematocrit under 38% during 6 weeks ; Troxerutin (3 /d) and aspirin (100 - 160 mg/d) ; Clinical and angiographic controls to look for retinal ischemia indicating laser PRP to prevent neovascular glaucoma.
  • Signed informed consent.

You may not qualify if:

  • Ischemic CRVO : 1- More than 30 disc diameters of ischemia at fluorescein angiography and/or •2- If Angiogram is uninterpretable because of hemorrhages, deficit of afferent pupillary reflex 0.9 with photographic filters (proposed by Hayreh) with indication to do laser PRP or laser PRP already done,
  • Rubeosis or neovascular glaucoma,
  • Bilateral diabetic retinopathy preproliferative or proliferative,
  • Uncharacterized coagulation disease, or anticoagulant treatment,
  • Untreated systemic disease (diabetes, severe high blood pressure, Cardiac failure) ou eye disease (glaucoma),
  • Contra-indication or documented allergy to troxerutin or platelet anti-aggregating agents,
  • Contra-indication to surgical procedure
  • incapacity to received an informed consent, incapacity to follow all the study schedule
