We report the first case with central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO), which is a rare but ophthalmic emergency complication, in periprocedural periods of atrial fibrillation ablation. In this case, sudden visual loss occurred after the procedure and visual loss was persisted. Operators should know the incidence and management of CRAO.

Introduction: Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) is a form of ischemic stroke and necessitates a comprehensive workup, including for cardioembolic sources such as atrial fibrillation (AF). However, the incidence of new AF diagnosed after CRAO is unknown. We aimed to examine the incidence of new, cardiac device-detected AF after CRAO in a large population-based cohort. Methods: Using patient-level data from the Optum® de-identified EHR dataset (2007-2017) linked with Medtronic implantable cardiac device data, we identified patients that had a diagnosis-code corresponding to CRAO and no known history of AF, and who also had either a device in-situ at the time of CRAO or implanted ≤1 year post-CRAO with continuous AF monitoring data available. AF incidence was defined as ≥2 minutes of device-detected AF in a day. Results: Of 467,167 patients screened, 246/433 (56.8%) with CRAO had no history of AF, of whom 39 had an eligible implantable cardiac device (mean age 66.7±14.8, 41.0% female). Prevalence of vascular risk factors was high (hypertension, 71.8%; hyperlipidemia, 61.5%; coronary artery disease, 46.2%). Within 3 months, 7.7% of these patients (n=3) had device-detected AF. At 36 months, 33.3% of patients (n=13). The maximum daily AF burden post CRAO ranged from 2 minutes to 24 hours with a mean of 390±530 minutes. Of the patients with device-detected AF, 9 were found by an implantable cardiac monitor and 4 by pacemaker or defibrillator. Discussion: The rate of long-term AF detection after CRAO was high in patients with implanted cardiac devices, and appears comparable with rates seen after cryptogenic ischemic stroke and in other high-risk populations. Our findings warrant future prospective studies not limited by selection bias.

Background: Central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO) causes sudden, irreversible blindness and is a form of acute ischemic stroke. In this study, we sought to determine the proportion of patients in whom atrial fibrillation (AF) is detected by extended cardiac monitoring after CRAO. Methods: We performed a retrospective, observational cohort study using data from the Optum deidentified electronic health record of 30.8 million people cross-referenced with the Medtronic CareLink database of 2.7 million people with cardiac monitoring devices in situ. We enrolled patients in 3 groups: (1) CRAO, (2) cerebral ischemic stroke, and (3) age-, sex-, and comorbidity-matched controls. The primary end point was the detection of new AF (defined as ≥2 minutes of AF detected on a cardiac monitoring device). Results: We reviewed 884 431 patient records in common between the two databases to identify 100 patients with CRAO, 6559 with ischemic stroke, and 1000 matched controls. After CRAO, the cumulative incidence of new AF at 2 years was 49.6% (95% CI, 37.4%–61.7%). Patients with CRAO had a higher rate of AF than controls (hazard ratio, 1.64 [95% CI, 1.17–2.31]) and a comparable rate to patients with stroke (hazard ratio, 1.01 [95% CI, 0.75–1.36]). CRAO was associated with a higher incidence of new stroke compared with matched controls (hazard ratio, 2.85 [95% CI, 1.29–6.29]). Conclusions: The rate of AF detection after CRAO is higher than that seen in age-, sex-, and comorbidity-matched controls and comparable to that seen after ischemic cerebral stroke. Paroxysmal AF should be considered as part of the differential etiology of CRAO, and those patients may benefit from long-term cardiac monitoring.
