The Role of Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography(OCTA) in Detecting Choroidal Neovascularization in DifferentStages of Best Macular Dystrophy: A Case Series

Best macular dystrophy (BMD) is an autosomal dominant macular dystrophy of childhood onset characterized by bilateral and symmetric vitelliform lesions. Several stages of disease have been well-described in the literature. Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) has traditionally been considered a hallmark of end-stage disease, and anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) agents have been used to improve visual prognosis. While CNV was historically detected with fluorescein angiography, optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) has recently been employed as a novel mechanism for identifying CNV in BMD. In this case series, we discuss our institutional experience with using OCTA to detect CNV in BMD and ...
