Choroidal neovascularisation developed in 62/66 (94%) eyes followed up for a mean period of 11.2 years after treatment with xenon arc feeder vessel coagulation for proliferative sickle retinopathy (PSR). In 27 eyes the neovascularisation was chorioretinal alone and in 35 eyes choriovitreal. Chorioretinal neovascularisation (CRN) was a benign complication but may convert to choriovitreal neovasc...

Rapid-sequence fluorescein angiography showed choroidally fed neovascularisation in the centre of a large black sunburst (chorioretinal scar). We suspect that a massive midperipheral retinal haemorrhage from the sickle cell disease caused the sunburst and altered Bruch's membra...
