Laser photocoagulation for choroidal neovascularization associated with sympathetic ophthalmia.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:To present a case of choroidal neovascularization associated with sympathetic ophthalmia successfully treated with photocoagulation. DESIGN:Interventional case report. METHODS:A 41-year-old man with a history of penetrating injury right eye, as well as sympathetic ophthalmia left eye, developed a classic choroidal neovascular membrane that threatened the center of the fovea. RESULTS:The patient was treated with argon laser photocoagulation. He has maintained stable visual acuity without evidence of recurrence of the membrane with 4 years' follow-up. CONCLUSION:Thermal laser should be considered as a treatment option in cases of choroidal neovascularization associated with sympathetic ophthalmia.
