Abstract: We present a case of branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO) in a healthy 20-year-old woman with no history of ocular or systemic diseases or drug use. She presented with a sudden decrease in visual acuity associated with a visual field defect of the right...
Abstract: Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is an uncommon eye disorder, but one that typically produces severe and irreversible vision loss in the affected eye. The retina has a dual blood supply, with the retinal circulation supplying the inner layers and the...
Abstract: To investigate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) chamber treatment in mouse models of retinal ischemia. Unilateral central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) or optic nerve crush (ONC) was induced in 50 mice each, of which 30 were treated with 100% oxygen...

Abstract: We describe a case series of 11 patients with retinal artery occlusion treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) at Intermountain Dixie Regional Medical Center between 2005 and 2009. We then combined data from our case series with data from two other...
Abstract: To compare hyperbaric oxygen treatment combined with hemodilution with hemodilution only in central retinal artery obstruction. Retrospective, nonrandomized case series. We reviewed records of all our patients diagnosed with central retinal artery...

Abstract: Five patients with a one- to 12-day history of symptoms secondary to retinal artery occlusion (RAO) were treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO2) for one hour at 1.5 ATA. Four patients had been diagnosed with branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO) and...
