AB  - BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: To correlate between hyperreflective material (HRM) 
      seen on optical coherence tomography (OCT) and visual outcomes in treatment-naive 
      acute branch retinal vein occlusion (BRVO). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Demographic and 
      OCT features of patients with acute BRVO were analyzed retrospectively. OCT 
      parameters noted were macular edema type, HRM presence and location, and outer 
      retinal layer integrity. Eyes were separated into two groups: Group 1 (BRVO 
      without HRM) and Group 2 (BRVO with HRM). RESULTS: Forty-seven eyes (67%) were 
      included in Group 1 and 23 eyes (33%) were included in Group 2. Mean presenting 
      logMAR visual acuity in Groups 1 and 2 was 0.521 +/- 0.428 (mean Snellen equivalent 
      = 20/66) and 0.627 +/- 0.427 (mean Snellen equivalent = 20/85), respectively. Poor 
      vision at final visit was noted in the BRVO with HRM group (P = .027). More 
      intravitreal injections were required for macular edema resolution in the HRM 
      group (4.83 vs. 2.67). CONCLUSIONS: Presence of HRM in BRVO is associated with 
      poorer vision. It can be a useful prognostic biomarker. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers
