Purpose To evaluate the usefulness of the retinal sensitivity in branch retinal vein occlusion (BVO) with macular edema (ME) following the anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) treatment. Methods Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), microperimetry, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) measurements were carried out in 20 patients with BVO with ME, at baseline and 1 month after the anti-VEGF treatment. The relationships among BCVA, mean retinal sensitivity (MS), macular volume (MV), central retinal thickness (CRT), integrity of ellipsoid zone (EZ), mean retinal sensitivity in the most affected quadrant (qMS), and macular volume in the most affected quadrant (qMV) were investigated. In addition, the relationships among the change in BCVA at 1 month (Delta BCVA1m), mean sensitivity in the most affected quadrant at 1 month (Delta qMS1m), MV in the most affected quadrant at 1 month (Delta qMV1m), and CRT at 1 month (Delta CRT1m) were analyzed. The optimal model for BCVA at 3 months after the treatment (BCVA3m) was identified. Results There was not a significant difference in BCVA (paired Wilcoxon test,p = 0.058) between at baseline and after the treatment, but there were significant differences in MS, MV, CRT, qMS, and qMV (p < 0.05). There was a significant relationship between Delta qMS1m and Delta MV1m, Delta CRT1m, and Delta qMV1m, respectively. Delta MS1m or Delta qMS1m and BCVA at baseline and Delta BCVA1m were selected as explanatory variables in the optimal model for BCVA3m. Conclusion Retinal sensitivity was related to retinal structure, whereas this was not the case with BCVA. In addition, retinal sensitivity was useful to predict BCVA after anti-VEGF therapy.
