A 47 year old woman with NVD and NVE due to PDR returned 2 months after PRP. Angiography confirming diffuse macular leakage consistent with clinically significant macular edema (CSME) possibly exacerbated by the PRP, and progressive NVD and NVE.
Intravitreal bevacizumab (1.25 mg) was administered intravitreally.
When she returned 8 weeks later, angiography confirmed that her macular edema resolved and NV regressed.
