Résumé

This article studies whether the characteristics and clinical course of African American patients with central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) differ from other racial groups. This retrospective cohort study included consecutive patients diagnosed with CRVO at Duke Eye Center, Durham, North Carolina. Presenting characteristics, examination findings, treatment course, and functional and structural outcomes were compared based on patient-reported race. A total of 479 patients with CRVO were included (64.7% white, 22.2% African American, 1.7% mixed race, and 11.4% other races). African American patients were older (68.1 vs 64.3 years, African Americans with CRVO presented with more severe visual impairment and more systemic and ocular risk factors for CRVO. Treatment-naive African Americans had a greater treatment burden during the first year of follow-up.
