Purpose:
To report the optical coherence tomographic angiography findings and response to treatment in a case of macular telangiectasia Type 2 with subretinal neovascularization.
Methods:
Case report.
Results:
A 64-year-old man with macular telangiectasia Type 2 developed subretinal neovascularization, which was imaged on optical coherence tomographic angiography. He was treated with intravitreal aflibercept, and there was a remarkable reduction of flow in the subretinal neovascular network on optical coherence tomographic angiography.
Conclusion:
Optical coherence tomographic angiography provides detailed information on the retinal microvasculature and subretinal neovascularization in macular telangiectasia Type 2. It can be used to assess response to treatment.
