GRADE 1 HTR • GENERALIZED ARTERIOLAR ATTENUATION • BROADENING OF ARTERIOLAR LIGHT REFLEX • CONCEALMENT OF VEIN AT A-V CROSSINGS
GRADE 2 HTR • SEVERE GENERALIZED AND FOCAL ARTERIOLAR CONSTRICTION • A-V CROSSING CHANGES (SALUS SIGN)
GRADE 3 HTR • Copper wiring of arterioles • Venous banking distal to A-V crossing (bonnet’s sn) • Venous tapering on either side of crossing (gunn’s sn) • Right angle deflection of veins. • Flame shaped hemorrhages cotton wool spots, hard exudates.
GRADE 4 HTR • All changes of grade 3 • Silver wiring of arterioles • Disc edema
Ocular associations of hypertension Retinal vein occlusion • CRVO (Central Retinal Vein Occlusion) • HRVO (Hemi Retinal Vein Occlusion) • BRVO (Branch Retinal Vein Occlusion) Constitutes 69.5 % of all RVO cases
CRVO ... Classic Appearance Mildest Form
CRVO NON ISCHAEMIC ISCHAEMIC

CRVO Hayreh et al – • Non – Ischaemic : Due to simple occlusion of retinal venous system • Ischaemic : Due to combined occlusion of the arterial & venous circulation Green et al – Thrombus formation in the region of lamina cribrosa is the primary event
CRVO Complications / Sequelae ... • Macular oedema • Haemorrhage • Ischaemia stimulates neovascularization in • Optic disc • Retina • Angle • Iris - Rubeosis may cause Neovascular Glaucoma • Rhegmatogenous RD • Vascular complications • Microaneurysyms • Optociliary vessels – collaterals between retinal & ciliary vessels
Cilioretinal artery occlusion Combined with CRVO
Cilioretinal artery occlusion Combined with anterior ischaemic optic neuropathy
HRVO ... • Superior & Inferior vein do not merge into Central Vein before entering into lamina cribrosa • Like CRVO, only superior or inferior half involved • Types • 2/3rd : Venous stasis • 1/3rd : Haemorrhagic • Rest Rx or management same as CRVO
45/M PR No 17422 BRVO Baseline 20/500 STT 3 weeks 20/500 Avastin 6 weeks/8 m 20/80
BRVO ... • Portion of retina involved • Mostly temporal - 62% Superotemporal • 38% Inferotemporal • Nasal – uncommon & asymptomatic • Occurs exclusively at arterial overcrossing at AV intersection by a thrombus
