  • Right Eye Color Photo With Hemorrhages in Case of CNVM With Angioid Streaks

    Nov 29 2024 by Anand Temkar

    A 45 year old male came with chief complaint of blurring vision in right eyes since past 4 days. His vision is 6/12 in right eye and 6/9 in left eye. His vision was 14 mmHg in right eye and 16 mmHg in left eye. He was diagnosed with Angioid Streaks in both eyes about a year ago, then he developed choroidal neovascularization in his left eye 8 months ago, for which he received AntiVEGF injections x 3. Left eye is a stable eye now. Patient presented with right eye choroidal neovascularization in a case of Angioid Streaks on recent follow up. We have advised him right eye AntiVEGF injections x 3. In this image, the right eye color photo shows bleed from CNVM in case of angioid streaks.
