متن کاملRetinal pigment epithelium tear after intravitreal aflibercept injection
To report a case complicated with a retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) tear after intravitreal aflibercept injection. A 78-year-old man had deteriorated visual acuity in his left eye. Fluorescein angiography showed occult choroidal neovascularization. Optical coherence tomography showed a serous retinal detachment and fibrovascular pigment epithelial detachment. He was diagnosed as typical age-re...

متن کاملBimonthly half-dose ranibizumab in large pigment epithelial detachment and retinal angiomatous proliferation with high risk of retinal pigment epithelium tear: a case report
INTRODUCTION The management of large pigment epithelial detachments (PEDs) associated with retinal angiomatous proliferation (RAP) remains a challenge due to the high risk of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) tear. We describe the successful progressive anatomical result and the maintenance of visual acuity to bimonthly, half-dose ranibizumab in a patient with this condition. PURPOSE To descri...
متن کاملFollow-up study of detachment of the retinal pigment epithelium.
To determine the clinical course of untreated retinal pigment epithelial detachment we reviewed data from 50 eyes of 42 patients followed up for an average of 29 months without photocoagulation. In 14 eyes with avascular lesions, in patients under 50 years of age, all had a final vision of 20/30 or better. None developed neovascularisation or haemorrhage. In 17 eyes with avascular lesions in pa...
