Effect of Intravitreal Ranibizumab Injection With Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO)

September 27, 2016 updated by: Novartis Korea Ltd.

An Open-label, Nonrandomized, Phase IIIb, Single Dose Study to Evaluated the Changes in Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and Fluorescein Angiography (FA) After Intravitreal Injection of Lucentis® in Patients With Macular Edema Secondary to Retinal Vein Occlusion (RVO)

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of intravitreal Lucentis® (Ranibizumab) and investigate the anatomical and functional improvement following this treatment in patients with macular edema due to retinal vein occlusion (RVO).
