Study Arms (1)
polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy without polyp
EXPERIMENTALInterventions
1. Three monthly intravitreal aflibercept (2mg) injections 2. Five bimonthly intravitreal aflibercept (2mg) injections 3. Rescue treatment: Verteporfin photodynamic therapy * Loss of five ETDRS letters or one Snellen line of vision from baseline * Presence of subretinal fluid or intraretinal fluid despite three consecutive (monthly or bimonthly) aflibercept injection * Presence of active polyp on indocyanine green angiography
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:

- decreased visual acuity by subretinal fluid and hemorrhage involving foveal center
You may not qualify if:
- polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy with active polyp
- previous photodynamic therapy more than three times
- anti-VEGF injection within one month
- photodynamic therapy or intraocular steroid treatment within three months
