Abstract

A 67-year-old asymptomatic man presented with bilateral drusen. Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed no signs of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) and no intraretinal or subretinal fluid. OCT angiography (OCTA) revealed the presence of a type 1 CNV in the right eye. Management options were discussed with the patient, who opted for a clinical follow-up. This is the first description demonstrating the OCTA characteristics of a quiescent CNV secondary to age-related macular degeneration. [ Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina. 2015;46:1056–1057.]
