SS-OCTA is more precise in defining the extent and location of maximum ischemic insult following RVO compared to FFA, hence represents a more efficient grader for ischemic damage in the posterior pole. Increased CMT, DRIL, and DROL on SS-OCT, and SCP and DCP ischemia on SS-OCTA are significant predictors of poor visual outcome.
