Figure 4: (a) A 74-year-old female with 6 months' history of decreasing vision in the left eye (visual acuity, 20/100). Optical coherence tomography image of the patient at baseline, choroidal neovascularization with intraretinal fluid was seen. Atrophic area was 0.645 mm2. (b) Color fundus, fundus autofluorescence, and optical coherence tomography images of month 4 after three intravitreal ranibizumab injections. Area of the atrophic region was 0.296 mm2, which decreased from baseline. The intraretinal fluid was completely absorbed. (c) Color fundus, fundus autofluorescence, and optical coherence tomography images of month 12. Area of the atrophic region was 1.002 mm2, and intraretinal fluid was detected in optical coherence tomography image. (d) Color fundus, fundus autofluorescence, and optical coherence tomography images of month 24. Area of the atrophic region was 3.164 mm2. The intraretinal fluid was still observed, and size of choroidal neovascularization increased in optical coherence tomography image. Patient received intravitreal ranibizumab injections 9 times during 24-month follow-up |
