Objective:To observe and evaluate the effect of Supplemented Taohong Siwu Decoction (THSW) on retinal vein occlusion (RVO) in rats by establishing the model of RVO in SD rats by using Rose Bengale combined with laser photodynamics and THSW was given by gavage. Methods① The model of RVO in SD rats was established by using Rose Bengale combined with laser photodynamics. ②THSW at high, medium and low concentrations was given by gavage for 3 weeks and the fundus was observed at regular intervals. Results:The model of RVO in SD rats was successfully established, as shown by FFA and the light and electron microscopy. In the fundus, it was found out that the improvement of fundus lesions with THSW was superior to the natural course of the model, with most significant effect in the high concentration group. Conclusion:Supplemented Taohong Siwu Decoction given by gavage reduces fundus lesions including retinal hemorrhage and edema in rat model of RVO.
