Macular Star Secondary to Nasal Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion
Ophthalmic Surgery, Lasers and Imaging, 09/30/09

Parodi MB et al. – Visual acuity improved from 20/200 to 20/40 with a remarkable reduction of the macular exudates and resolution of dye leakage on fluorescein angiography over a 2–year follow–up.
