To assess the effectiveness, burden and safety of two categories of treatment for central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO): intravitreal injections of anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (anti-VEGF) and Dexamethasone (Ozurdex). A retrospective analysis of Medisoft Electronic Patient Record (EPR) data from 27 NHS sites in the UK identified 4619 treatment naive patients with a single mode of treatment for macular oedema secondary to CRVO. Statistics describing the overall CRVO patient cohort and individual patient sub-populations stratified by treatment type were generated. Mean age at baseline, gender, ethnicity, social deprivation and visual acuity (VA) follow-up was reported. Absolute and change in VA using Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Score are used to describe treatment effectiveness, the number of injections and visits used to describe treatment burden and endophthalmitis rates as a marker of treatment safety. Mean VA was 47.9 and 45.3 EDTRS letters in the anti-VEGF and Ozurdex groups, respectively. This changed to 57.9 / 53.7 at 12-months, 58.3 / 46.9 at 18-months and 59.4 at 36-months for the anti-VEGF group alone. Mean number of injections were 5.6 / 1.6 at 12-months, 6.0 / 1.7 at 18-months, and 7.3 at 36-months for the anti-VEGF group alone. Endophthalmitis rates were 0.003% (n = 4) for the anti-VEGF group and 0.09% (n = 1) for the dexamethasone group. VA improvements were greater and more sustained with anti-VEGF treatment. Lower starting acuity resulted in bigger gains in both groups, whilst higher starting acuity resulted in higher VA at 36-months. Although treatment burden was greater with anti-VEGF, Ozurdex was associated with higher rates of endophthalmitis.
