Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Adult patients (>=18 years old) with a diagnosis of polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) confirmed by ICGA, regardless of gender. 2. Patients should be treatment-naïve for PCV, with no prior treatment for PCV. 3. Patients will receive anti-VEGF therapy with complete regimen, using Conbercept as the therapeutic agent. 4. Patients must be able to undergo OCTA imaging and follow-up, accept wide-field OCTA imaging, agree to complete the required follow-up period (at least 6–12 months), and provide written informed consent. 5. Best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA): 20/400 to 20/40 (Snellen equivalent).
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Presence of other severe ocular diseases, including diabetic retinopathy, retinal vein occlusion, uveitis, etc. 2. Opacification of the refractive media precluding adequate OCTA imaging. 3.Intraocular pressure (IOP) > 21 mmHg. 4. Presence of systemic diseases other than diabetes mellitus and essential hypertension that may cause ocular alterations, such as autoimmune diseases, history of major cardiovascular events, neurodegenerative diseases. 5. Poor fixation or inability to cooperate with examinations for other reasons. 6. Long-term use of medications that may induce adverse ocular effects (e.g., oral contraceptives). 7. Any other conditions deemed exclusionary by the investigators.
