Abstract:
PURPOSE:To highlight the possible role of indocyanine green angiography in predicting future exudative changes in eyes that are candidates for drusen laser treatment. METHODS:In a 56-year-old woman, fluorescein and indocyanine green angiography were performed before drusen laser treatment. RESULTS:The treated eye had a suspicious lesion at baseline indocyanine green angiography and a nonsuspicious fluoroangiographic pattern. Seven months after treatment, the patient developed choroidal neovascularization and pigment epithelial detachment in the treated eye. CONCLUSION:To decrease the risk of macular exudative changes that may be related to laser treatment, eyes that are candidates for drusen laser treatment should be examined before treatment, not only by fluorescein angiography, but also by indocyanine green angiography.
