efigure 1. Generalized Posterior Ciliary Artery Occlusion With Relative Central Retinal Artery Sparing A 48-year-old woman (Patient 19) after facial autologous fat injection (specific site unknown). (A) Fundus photograph at the initial visit showed only focal retinal edema. (B-D) A fluorescein angiogram shows severe choroidal ischemia, with a relatively preserved retinal circulation (arm to retina = 14 s, arteriovenous transit time = 8 s. (E, F) Optical coherence tomography revealed a normal retinal structure at the initial visit (E), but inner retinal edema was observed 3 days later (F). (G) Optic atrophy and sclerotic retinal arteries were observed 21 months later. Initial and final visual acuity in the left eye was counting fingers and no light perception, respectively. 6
efigure 2. Central Retinal Artery Occlusion A 26-year-old woman (Patient 26) after autologous fat injection in the glabella and nasolabial fold. (A) Fundus photograph obtained at the initial visit shows retinal edema with a cherry red spot sign. (B- C) A fluorescein angiogram shows delayed arterial and choroidal filling. Choroidal ischemia is not as prominent as in the retinal circulation. (D) Optical coherence tomography revealed severe inner retinal edema. Initial and final visual acuity in her left eye was no light perception. 7
efigure 3. Localized Posterior Ciliary Artery Occlusion A 22-year-old woman (Patient 32) after hyaluronic acid injection in the glabella. (A) Fundus photograph obtained at the initial visit shows a normal retinal appearance. (B-C) A fluorescein angiogram shows normal retinal perfusion (arm to retina = 13 s, arteriovenous transit time = 7 s). (D) Focal choroidal ischemia was observed in nasal area. Initial and final visual acuity in the left eye was 20/32 and 20/25, respectively. 8
efigure 4. Branch Retinal Artery Occlusion A 25-year-old woman (Patient 36) after facial filler injection (specific material unknown) in the nasal dorsum for rhinoplasty. (A) Fundus photo taken at the initial visit shows inferior retinal edema. (B) A fluorescein angiogram shows a filling defect in the inferior temporal branch. (C) Optical coherence tomography revealed inner retinal edema temporal and inferior to the fovea. (D) Visual field testing showed a corresponding superior visual field defect. Initial and final visual acuity in the left eye was 20/32 and 20/20. 9
