Digital fundus imaging of subretinal neovascularization

Digital fundus imaging was used for fluorescein angiography in patients with subretinal neovascularization. After laser treatment, digital red-free photographs were obtained and compared against pretreatment angiogram frames to determine the margins of treatment. This technique allowed instant review of images and confirmation of complete laser treatment of the lesions. Of 15 eyes treated and followed for at least one year, there were two eyes with early recurrences (13%). A total of five eyes had recurrences during the follow-up period (33%). Digital imaging is a useful tool for treating subretinal neovascularization.
