Abstract
The uncontrolled growth of choroidal new vessels (CNV) is the major cause of permanent vision loss in adults; initial treatment is unsuccessful in a large proportion of patients, particularly those with age-related macular degeneration1. There are several potential factors leading to the poor prognosis. Chiefly, it is difficult to detect the onset and to localize the components of the CNV. Treatable components remain controversial.
