Simultaneous branch retinal artery and vein occlusion is a rare condition that may cause severe visual loss, and its treatment is often unrewarding. Herein, we report a case with simultaneous central retinal vein and branch retinal artery occlusion; it was successfully treated with a single dexamethasone intravitreal implant. The affected eye attained a visual acuity level of 20/25 from the visual acuity of hand motions at presentation with a residual, but relatively diminished, altitudinal scotoma during a follow-up period of 6 months.
视网膜分支动脉和静脉同时阻塞是一种罕见的病症，可能导致严重的视力丧失，其治疗往往效果不佳。在此，我们报告一例视网膜中央静脉和分支视网膜动脉同时阻塞的病例；该病例通过单次玻璃体内植入地塞米松成功治愈。患眼在6个月的随访期内，视力从就诊时的手动视力提高到20/25，残留一个相对缩小的象限性暗点。
