Abstract

Thirty-three patients who underwent low dose of radiation therapy for subfoveal choroidal membranes were studied after a mean follow-up of 16 months. The evaluated parameters were the visual outcome and the choroidal neovascularization evolution. In this study, the efficacy of low-dose radiation delivered to the macular region as an alternative treatment in subfoveal membrane was limited.
