| Popis: | The medical condition referred to as “central retinal artery occlusion” (CRAO) was first documented by Albrecht von Graefe in 1859. Subsequently, CRAO has consistently been identified as a serious medical condition that leads to substantial visual impairment. Furthermore, it is correlated with vascular complications that have the potential to affect crucial organs such as the brain and heart. A considerable amount of research has been extensively published on the various aspects of this topic, which is marked by notable debates and misconceptions, especially regarding its management and outcomes. The primary aim of this review article is to analyze the latest developments in the understanding of CRAO, which includes its causes, techniques for retinal imaging, systemic evaluation, and therapeutic strategies, such as vitrectomy. This review article offers readers a comprehensive learning experience to gain knowledge on the fundamental principles and recent advancements in CRAO. |
