Seven patients with angioid strips of the retina are described. In 5 patients angioid strips were concomitant with Darier's elastic pseudoxanthoma.

The process stubbornly progressed. Conservative therapy and laser coagulation were ineffective in the majority of cases or gave but a short alleviation.
