Background

Central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO), a common cause of visual loss, is a prevalent retinal vascular disease that is often associated with a variety of systemic conditions and concern in 90 % of cases, patients over the age of 50 years. Bilateral CRVO in young adults is a rare presenting feature.

We report the case of a 51-year-old man, who presented with an ischemic CRVO of the right eye (RE) followed 8 months later by ischemic CRVO of the left eye (LE), which was treated aggressively and led to preservation of LE visual acuity.
