HBO treatment appears to have a beneficial effect on visual outcome in patients with retinal branch artery occlusion. HBO treatment could be a rescue therapy at an early stage of BRAO, especially to bridge the time of a potential reperfusion. However, further, prospective, randomized clinical trials are required to verify this assumption.
