Key Words Branch retinal artery occlusion; Vascular abnormality; Case report; ; ;
Core Tip We reported an extremely rare case of retinal vascular anomaly in combination with branch retinal artery occlusion (BRAO) that led to severe loss of vision in the affected eye. In this case, a large artery branch originated at the superior temporal arcade, then crossed the horizontal raphe to travel through the macular area. The patient denied all known risk factors for BRAO. In our case, the eye with the anomalous retinal artery eventually developed neovascular glaucoma with complete loss of vision. We speculate that the neovascular glaucoma may have been associated with a recurrence of the BRAO.
