Purpose: Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is a rare complication after laser photocoagulation for disorders such as central serous chorioretinopathy (CSC).
Methods: We report 2 patients who developed CNV after laser treatment for persistent CSC and were treated by 3 1.25-mg intravitreal injections of bevacizumab in 1-month intervals.
Results: In both patients, best-corrected visual acuity improved from 20/120 to 20/80 and from counting fingers at 3 feet to 20/100 over 12 months of follow-up.
Conclusions: The favorable outcome suggests that intravitreal injection of bevacizumab may be beneficial for patients who develop CNV after laser photocoagulation. The favorable outcome may be related to the limited pathology.
