Idiopathic juxtapapillary polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy in the papillomacular bundle: treatment with photodynamic therapy: two years follow-up.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the efficacy of photodynamic therapy (PDT) in a patient with juxtapapillary idiopathic polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (IPCV) in the papillomacular bundle.

METHODS: One session of PDT using a spot size with diameter of 1000 μm in the center of the juxtapapillary lesion was applied.

PATIENT: A 75-year-old woman with decreased vision (20/80) in her right eye over a period of 1 year.

RESULTS: After a follow-up of 2 years, the best-corrected visual acuity was 20/32, the lesion remained sclerosed, and lipids have disappeared.

CONCLUSION: PDT represented a good treatment for this patient with juxtapapillary IPCV.
