Retinal vein occlusions typically occur in older patients with a history of high blood pressure and atherosclerosis. Other causes of retinal vein occlusion include vasculitis, clotting disorders, and medications such as oral contraceptive pills.
Central retinal vein occlusion may occur. If the tumor is next to the optic nerve, growth can compress the nerve and cause gradual loss of vision and unilateral proptosis. Dyschromatopsia may occur. Growth can also cause compressive vascular problems like central retinal vein occlusion. Lastly, growth also causes the tumor to exceed its blood supply.
