Progression of Subclinical Pachychoroid Neovasculopathy to an Active Neovascularization in the Presence of Acquired Vitelliform Lesions
We describe a unique case of bilateral acquired vitelliform lesions in a 67-year-old-female with pachychoroid associated with subretinal fluid in the right eye (OD) and a nonexudative choroidal neovascular membrane (CNVM) in the left eye (OS). Multimodal imaging performed at baseline and over the en...
