We detected a similar prevalence of AF in all groups. RVO patients tended to exhibit a higher AF detection rate and lower number needed to screen than RAO and NAION. The detection of AF rose considerably via Holter ECG. As a consequence, we recommend prolonged ECG monitoring in patients with acute ophthalmic vascular diseases.
