Abstract

The aim of the present systematic review was to assess the efficacy of laser therapy for ischemic central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO). Relevant studies were retrieved by searching the PubMed, Embase, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database and, Chinese Science and Technology Periodicals databases using a combination of key words, including ‘central retinal vein obstruction’, ‘CRVO’, ‘laser’ and ‘panretinal photocoagulation’. The titles, abstracts and full texts were screened by two independent reviewers and studies were selected according to specific inclusion criteria. Data were extracted and the quality of each study was graded using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation or Methodological Index for Non‑Randomized Studies (MINORS) criteria. A total of 1,187 abstracts were retrieved, and finally, 11 clinical studies were selected, including 534 cases of CRVO. Of these, 8 studies compared the efficacy of laser therapy with other treatments for CRVO, two studies compared the efficacy of laser therapy and drug treatment for CRVO and one study compared the efficacy of early laser therapy with standard laser therapy (regular examinations and laser therapy performed as soon as neovascularization was identified) for CRVO. Among them, the results of five studies demonstrated that panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) for the prevention of iris neovascularization and neovascular glaucoma is inefficient regarding the improvement of visual acuity. A total of 10 studies indicated that laser therapy achieved better outcomes in neovascularization of the retina, optic disc neovascularization and iris neovascularization, neovascular glaucoma, vitreous hemorrhage, changes in the visual field, macular edema, macular thickness and intraocular pressure. Of note, it was indicated that laser photocoagulation prevents the severe vascular complications of CRVO. In addition, in the eyes of patients receiving PRP for the treatment of ischemic CRVO, significant reductions in corneal sub‑basal nerve plexus parameters and average peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer thickness were observed. Furthermore, laser photocoagulation was able to increase retinal blood flow in eyes with ischemic CRVO.
