Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Efficacy
8 patients with subfoveal PM-CNV, were treated with of 2 mg ( 0.05mL) RII. ETDRS best corrected visual acuity, macular thickness on OCT scans, and angiographic features were recorded and evaluated. The aspect of OCT scans passing across the PM-CNV was also analyzed. AII were repeated only in case of persistent angiographic leakage and if OCT scans showed retinal thickening or edema and serous retinal detachment. The follow-up period was at least 1 year.
To evaluate the clinical results of aflibercept intravitreal injection (AII) in choroidal neovascularization (CNV) secondary to pathologic myopia (PM-CNV), after 1 year follow up.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Myopic and CNVM
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with poor compliance
- Patients with uncontrolled diabetes and hypertension or any other medical condition that increase the risk of complications like recent history of Stroke or myocardial infraction (\< one year). (Physician clearance was obtained for all patients).
