Management of Acute Retinal Ischemia
Ophthalmol 125:1597-1607, Viousse, V.,et al, 2018
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Acute retinal arterial ischemia, including vascular transient monocular vision loss (TMVL) and branch (BRAO) and central retina arterial occlusions (CRAO), are ocular and systemic emergencies requiring immediate diagnosis and treatment. Guidelines recommend the combination of urgent brain magnetic resonance imaging with diffusion-weighted imaging, vascular imaging, and clinical assessment to identify TMVL, BRAO, and CRAO patients at highest risk for recurrent stroke, facilitation early preventive treatments to reduce the risk of subsequent stroke and cardiovascular events.
