Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of aflibercept in treating neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) over two years, focusing on the response of different types of choroidal neovascular membranes (CNV).
- A total of 135 patients were involved, receiving a fixed injection regimen in the first year and a PRN approach in the second year, with visual acuity and retinal thickness assessed at multiple time points.
- Results showed improvements in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and reductions in central retinal thickness (CRT) across the CNV types over the 24-month period, indicating positive treatment responses.
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of intravitreal aflibercept injections in treatment-naive type 3 neovascularization using a fixed treatment regime during the first year of therapy.
Methods: Fourteen eyes of 14 patients diagnosed with type 3 neovascularization were studied. All patients were treated with intravitreal aflibercept injections using a fixed treatment regime of 3 consecutive monthly dosages followed by 2-month interval injections.
Article Synopsis
- A 29-year-old man was diagnosed with incomplete Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome (VKH) due to severe headache and acute vision blurring in both eyes.
- The patient exhibited normal vision overall, but had specific issues in the left eye, including retinal detachments confirmed by various diagnostic tests.
- Despite immediate high-dose corticosteroid treatment leading to an initial positive response, the patient later experienced progressive pigmented changes in retinal cells.
