Purpose: Intravitreal injections of anti-VEGF agents are considered as safe, with a very low rate of intraocular inflammations (IOI). Faricimab is a novel intravitreal bispecific antibody targeting both VEGF-A and angiopoietin-Tie2 independently. Despite a safe profile in randomized clinical trials, several real-life studies have reported cases of IOI.

Purpose: To evaluate the ability of optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) to detect abnormal vascular blood flow in Type 1 neovascularization (NV) with or without significant pigment epithelial detachment (PED).

Methods: Consecutive age-related macular degeneration patients with either treatment-naive or anti-vascular endothelial growth factor-treated Type 1 NV were divided into 2 groups based on the PED height on structural OCT: greater than 250 μm (Group 1) versus less than 250 μm (Group 2). Two independent senior retina specialists analyzed the OCTA images (Zeiss Angioplex OCT, Carl Zeiss AG, Jena, Germany) using the automatic slabs alone (first reader) versus automatic and manual segmentation slabs (second reader).

Purpose: To characterize the macular lesions in multifocal choroiditis using multimodal imaging (MMI) and to evaluate optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) in distinguishing neovascular from inflammatory lesions.

Methods: Retrospective review of medical records of consecutive patients diagnosed with multifocal choroiditis and macular involvement, between September 2014 and May 2016, were included. All patients underwent standard examination and MMI, including fundus color photography, fundus autofluorescence, fluorescein angiography, and spectral domain optical coherence tomography.
