Choroidal Neovascular Membrane In Wet Age Related Macular Degeneration And In Pathological Myopia
Conditions
Brief summary
This study aims to compare choroidal neo-vascular membrane criteria in cases of age-related macular degeneration and cases of pathological myopia.
Detailed description
All patients will be examined by optical coherence tomography (OCT) and optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-angio) . The size, the location, the criteria of the choriodal neovascular membrane will be examined and imaged. Study include 50 cases of CNV in age related macular degeneration and 50 cases of CNV in pathological myopia.
Interventions
DEVICEOptical coherence tomography angiography
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a noninvasive imaging method that uses reflected light to create pictures of the back of your eye
