Risk of Stroke Recurrence Following Isolated Retinal Artery Occlusion Versus Minor Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack

Nonarteritic iRAO events were associated with significantly lower risks of subsequent cerebral infarction compared with NICE. These findings suggest that iRAO events are not equivalent to ischemic cerebrovascular events in terms of risk of subsequent stroke. Further studies are needed to optimize secondary stroke prevention strategies tailored to nonarteritic iRAOs.
