Ocular risk factors for choroidal neovascularization in pathologic myopia.
UNLABELLED PURPOSE. To identify the risk factors for development of myopic choroidal neovascularization (mCNV), a major cause of visual impairment. METHODS. Enrolled in the study were 23 consecutive patients with bilateral high myopia (axial length, > or =26.5 mm or refractive error, < or =8 D) and unilateral newly developed mCNV who presented to the Myopia Clinic, Osaka University Hospital. Sp...
متن کاملLaser photocoagulation, photodynamic therapy, and intravitreal bevacizumab for the treatment of juxtafoveal choroidal neovascularization secondary to pathologic myopia.
OBJECTIVE To compare the effects on visual acuity of laser treatment (LT), photodynamic therapy (PDT) with verteporfin, and intravitreal bevacizumab treatment in patients with juxtafoveal choroidal neovascularization secondary to pathologic myopia. METHODS This prospective randomized clinical investigation enrolled 54 patients, who were divided into 3 groups receiving PDT, LT, or intravitreal...
متن کاملChoroidal neovascularization secondary to choroideremia.
CASE REPORT The case is presented of a 30 year-old man, with night blindness and decreased visual acuity (VA) in both eyes, but more significant in the left eye (LE) of 20/100. Lesions consistent with choroideremia and LE macular hemorrhage was observed in the fundus. CNV was confirmed by OCT. A definitive diagnosis was obtained by genetic study. No treatment was given as the patient did not re...
متن کاملTranspupilary thermotherapy of occult subfoveal choroidal neovascularization secondary to age related macular degeneration
Abstract Background: Transpupillary thermotherapy is a new treatment for subfoveal choroidal neovascularization which needs further evaluation. This study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of transpupillary thermotherapy on regression of occult subfoveal choroidal neovascularization with or without pigment epithelial detachment in patients with age-related macular degeneration. Methods: In a ...
متن کامل1322 Long term natural history of choroidal neovascularization in pathologic myopia
Background and purpose: A likely explanation for the increase in lens fluorescence with aging and the acceleration of this process in patients with diabetes, is that lens proteins are altered by non-enzymatic glycosylation and the further steps of the Maillard reaction. Thus, the lens fluorescence intensity appears to represent a cumulative index of glycemia over the entire lifetime of the subj...
