I'm sure most of you are familiar with CRAO, but where do you think its future treatments lie? As of now, it is much to small to use surgery so where do we go next?

Try searching on google. Lots will come up.

I have never herad of this treatment. What does it consist of?

The Central Retinal Artery is so small that it is close to impossible to treat it if it were to clot. Instant blindness occurs when this artery becomes clotted.
