Abstract:

Punctate inner choroidopathy (PIC) primarily affects young myopic women, and its general visual prognosis is moderately good. Complicated choroid neovascularization (CNV) is frequent, and it is the main cause of visual impairment. Early detection and early treatment of CNV is essential for protecting the visual acuity of patients. To identify the features of multimodal imaging is conducive to the diagnosis of PIC, distinguishing between inflammatory lesions and CNV, and quantitatively evaluating the therapeutic response of CNV.  (Ophthalmol CHN, 2018, 27: 241-245)
