When this occurs, there is hemorrhage of blood from the blocked vessels into the surrounding retinal tissue leading to swelling (macular edema) and formation of new blood vessels (neovascularization). Left untreated, RVO typically leads to progressive deterioration of vision leading to permanent blindness. Risk factors for RVO include atherosclerosis, diabetes and high blood pressure. ...

This makes characterizing these molecular markers an ...
