The Superior and Inferior Vena Cava do not carry oxygenated blood to the heart. They carry deoxygenated blood. The pulmonary vein brings oxygenated blood to the heart from the lungs, which may seem odd since it's called a vein- but vessels leading TO the heart are called veins and vessels travelleing FROM the heart are called arteries.

No. The aorta is an artery and pumps no blood. The left ventricle of the heart, however, pumps blood through the aorta to the entire body except the lungs, which are supplied with blood through the pulmonary vein. (Yes! Not the pulmonary artery as you might suppose.)
They're specialised because their sole job is to transport oxygen to the body's cells, and carry carbon dioxide away. This is similar to white blood cells who's only job is to defend the body from invading diseases.
Retinal Vein OcclusionThe central retinal vein is the venous equivalent of the central retinal artery, and like that blood vessel can suffer from occlusion (central retinal vein occlusion), similar to that seen in ocular ischemic syndrome. Since the central retinal artery and vein are the sole source of blood supply and drainage for the retina, such occlusion can lead to severe damage to the retina and blindness, due to ischemia (restriction in blood supply) and edema (swelling). It can also cause glaucoma.
