Three-year OCT predictive factors of disease recurrence in eyes with successfully treated myopic choroidal neovascularisation

British Journal of Ophthalmology Mar 18, 2021

Borrelli E, Battista M, Vella G, et al. - Researchers conducted this retrospective, longitudinal study to evaluate the relationship of demographics, clinical features and structural optical coherence tomography (OCT) findings to disease recurrence in a cohort of patients with newly diagnosed myopic choroidal neovascularisation (CNV). In total, 64 patients (64 eyes) with successfully treated myopic CNV had obtained resolution of exudation after treatment (study baseline) and with 3 years of regular follow-ups. The following factors were correlated with an increased risk of disease recurrence: the size of patchy atrophy had an HR of 1.14; maximum CNV width had an HR of 1.02. In eyes with successfully treated myopic CNV, OCT risk factors for disease recurrence were discovered. If disease recurrence is a sight-threatening event, the findings can aid in the detection of high-risk patients and, ultimately, improve their outcome.
