A 62-year-old Hispanic male presented with decreased left eye vision secondary to long-standing, chronic cystoid macular edema as a result of venous stasis retinopathy. Treatment of venous stasis retinopathy is generally directed at reducing or eliminating the macular edema to avoid permanent visual acuity loss. There is still debate as to which forms of treatment are effective as well as which type of treatment is best. Argon laser photocoagulation, and to a certain extent steroid therapy, however, appear to give the best results. In the presented case, treatment was not initiated because of a poor prognosis for improvement due to a poor level of visual acuity and the chronicity of the cystoid macular edema.
一名62岁的西班牙裔男性因静脉淤滞性视网膜病变导致长期慢性黄斑囊样水肿，出现左眼视力下降。静脉淤滞性视网膜病变的治疗通常旨在减轻或消除黄斑水肿，以避免永久性视力丧失。对于哪种治疗形式有效以及哪种治疗方法最佳仍存在争议。然而，氩激光光凝以及在一定程度上的类固醇疗法似乎能取得最佳效果。在本病例中，由于视力水平较差以及黄斑囊样水肿的慢性化，改善预后不佳，因此未开始治疗。
