Figure 1

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) of macular areas of eyes with acute branch retinal vein occlusion.

(A,B) Color fundus photography, fluorescein angiography (FA) and OCT sections of a macular area with a typical flame-shaped hemorrhage and those of a non-flame-shaped blot hemorrhage, respectively. (A) FA shows a nonischemic macula. OCT sections reveal an organized layered structure in the inner retina and the locations of flame-shaped retinal hemorrhages are consistent with moderately reflective cylindrical bands that block visualization of the outer retina. (B) FA shows an ischemic macula. OCT sections show that the layered structures of the inner retina are disorganized, the boundaries between inner retinal layers are obscured and the retinal hemorrhages correspond to amorphous and moderately hyperreflective lesions located not at the inner retina, but at the outer retina.
