Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1) high myopia (axial length > 26.5 mm) 2) active CNV at the treatment (the presence of dye leakage on fluorescein angiogram) 3) a long-term follow-up of > 2 years after ranibizumab injection. The patients who participated in the RADIANCE study are also included in the study.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1) a history of other treatments for myopic CNV (PDT, other anti-VEGF reagents than ranibizumab) 2) a history of vitreoretinal surgery 3) a presence of other ocular complications which could affect the vision (dense cataract, foveal retinal detachment, macular holes, etc.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The change of the best collected visual acuity(BCVA) at 2 years after IVR compared to the baseline in patients with myopic CNV. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| 1)Absolute BCVA value at 2 years 2)The rate of absence of dye leakage from CNV at 2 years after IVR 3)The number of IVR for 2 years 4)The number of CNV recurrence for 2-year period 5)The CNV size (every 6 months for 2 years) 6)The central retinal thickness (every 6 months for 2 years) 7)The subfoveal choroidal thickness (every 6 months for 2 years) 8)The subfoveal scleral thickness (every 6 months for 2 years) 9)The rate of developing CNV-related chorioretinal atrophy at 2 years after IVR 10)The size of CNV-related chorioretinal atrophy at 2 years after IVR 11)The prognostic factors for the mean change of BCVA at 2 years 12)The prognostic factors for loss of CNV activity (absence of dye leakage) at 2 years 13)The prognostic factors for the size of chorioretinal atrophy at 2 years 14)The patient satisfaction at 2 years compared to the baseline 15)The incidence rate of ocular and systemic adverse events 16)Based on the above data (1-15), we would like to establish the treatment guideline for up to 2 years for myopic CNV. | — |
