The author describes optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings in a patient with central retinal artery occlusion by conducting a retrospective review of one case. Central retinal artery occlusion shows a distinct pattern on OCT images. In the acute phase, OCT images demonstrate the increased reflectivity and thickness of the inner retina and a corresponding decrease of reflectivity in the outer layer of the retina and retinal pigment...
