Retinal vessel occlusion surgery is a procedure used to treat blocked retinal blood vessels, such as those seen in retinal vein occlusion or retinal artery occlusion. The goal of the surgery is to restore blood flow to the affected area and prevent further damage to the retina, which could lead to permanent vision loss.

Treatment methods may include laser therapy to reduce swelling, intravitreal injections of anti-VEGF medications to reduce abnormal blood vessel growth, or vitrectomy to remove hemorrhages or scar tissue.

This surgery is essential in preventing further retinal damage, stabilizing vision, and reducing the risk of long-term complications such as macular edema or retinal detachment.
