Background: Central retinal vein occlusion and cilioretinal artery occlusion are rare but serious ocular conditions that can lead to significant visual impairment. While few cases of central retinal vein occlusion and cilioretinal artery occlusion have been individually reported, concurrent occlusion of both vessels is extremely rare, particularly in younger patients without traditional vascular risk factors. We present the first reported case of simultaneous central retinal vein occlusion and cilioretinal artery occlusion in a young female patient associated with short-term use of progestin-only oral contraceptives (OCPs).

We present 2 clinical cases of central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) combined with cilioretinal artery occlusion (CRAO) in young patients with no cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) or medical history of interest. An extensive etiological study with analytical and imaging tests was performed without finding relevant alterations. Finally, in the first case, the intake of 1 postcoital contraceptive pill was considered the triggering cause while, in the second case, the etiology was attributed to a previous infection by the SARS-Cov-2 virus.

Purpose: To describe the development of cystoid macular edema (CME) as a complication of central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) in 2 cases.
Observations: The first patient was a 51-year-old female who presented with acute loss of vision in the left eye. Multimodal retinal imaging revealed a CRAO with a perfused cilioretinal artery.

Background: The purpose of this study is to describe a patient who experienced simultaneous central retinal vein and cilioretinal artery occlusions, as well as perifoveal hemorrhage in the Henle fiber.
Case Presentation: A 67-year-old Iranian woman presented with a 3-day history of reduced vision in her left eye. Venous tortuosity and retinal hemorrhage were observed in the retina, together with whitened regions around the fovea, consistent with the diagnosis of central retinal vein occlusion in conjunction with cilioretinal artery occlusion.
