Jason PY - 2021 T2 - The Atlas of Emergency Medicine, 5e AB - In central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), the typical patient experiences a sudden painless monocular loss of vision, either segmental or complete. Visual acuity may range from finger counting or light perception to complete blindness. Fundal findings may include the following: fundal paleness caused by retinal edema (the fovea does not have the edema and thus appears as a cherry-red spot); narrow and irregular retinal arterioles; and a “boxcar” appearance of the retinal venules.
