Abstract
Vascular diseases of the retina are conditions that affect the retina’s blood vessels; light-sensitive tissue at the back of the eye. If left untreated, these disorders may cause severe impairment of eyesight or even total blindness. Diabetic retinopathy (DR), retinal vein occlusion (RVO), retinal artery occlusion (RAO), macular degeneration, & hypertensive retinopathy are the most prevalent vascular disorders of the retina. Medication, laser surgery, or other techniques to reduce swelling, halt bleeding, or prevent additional damage to the retina are only some of the treatment options available. To avoid irreversible vision loss, it is essential to have regular eye examinations so that these disorders may be detected & treated early. This review paper highlights the molecular pathogenesis along with regular treatment methods of various Retina Vascular diseases (RVDs) briefly. per.
