Description The basic aim of this paper is to introduce the case reports of two patients with the ischaemic form of the central vein occlusion with very low preoperative best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and with very unfavorable prognosis, treated by means of radial neurotomy of the optic nerve disc (RNO) during the pars plana vitrectomy (PPV). Radial neurotomy of the optic nerve disc (RNO) was performed in two patients with ischaemic form of the central vein occlusion with very unfavorable prognosis during the pars plana vitrectomy in the nasal part of the rim of the optic nerve disc between nasal retinal vascular arcades with specially designed knife (Spaide CRVO knife), as described by Opremcak. The surgery was supplemented with the peeling of the epiretinal membranes and inner limiting membrane, using the Membrane blue. Both eyes were due to uncomplicated course of the operations left without the inner tamponade.
