Abstract
Carotid artery stenosis is a notable cause of ocular ischemic disease. To analyze the ocular ischemic diseases caused by carotid artery stenosis and to seek effective treatment, a retrospective review of 182 patients with carotid artery stenosis was performed. These patients were administered medical treatment, carotid artery stenting (CAS) or carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and the curative effects of the three different treatments were compared. The results demonstrated that all three treatments helped to improve the disease. Both carotid endarterectomy and carotid artery stenting were more effective than medical treatment (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between carotid endarterectomy and carotid artery stenting (P>0.05). In conclusion, timely diagnosis and suitable treatment for ocular ischemic diseases caused by carotid artery stenosis are necessary due to the complicated clinical manifestation. This study suggested that carotid endarterectomy and carotid artery stenting are effective techniques that may relieve this disease.
