Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to provide efficacy and safety data of 3 consecutive monthly intravitreal injections with 0.5 mg ranibizumab in Japanese patients with visual impairment due to macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion (BRVO or CRVO) to support the applicability of the phase III study results of BRAVO and CRUISE in this indication, in the Japanese ethnic patients.
