To report a case of a major branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO) in the superotemporal region with superior macular involvement and a review of its natural history. This is a retrospective case presentation of a 49-year-old African Caribbean female patient presented to Accident and Emergency with unilateral persistent acute history of reduced central vision of left eye for 10 days with no other associated symptoms. Treatment options included using scatter (pan-retinal) laser photocoagulation followed by intravitreal injections as the area of non-perfusion is >5-disc area. It is warranted to understand the risk factors associated with BRVO and to develop appropriate treatment and follow-up plans.

Retinal detachments comprised of serious ocular conditions and can lead to permanent vision loss. When the retina, the neurosensory layer, detaches from the back of the eye, it loses its oxygen and nutrient supply leading to the death of the tissue. Immediate diagnosis and treatment are essential to avoid significant morbidity associated with this condition. In this mini review, we outline the evaluation and management of retinal detachments and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in evaluating and treating patients with this condition.
