Inflammatory Choroidal Neovascularisation

Inflammatory choroidal neovascularization is uncommon severe sight threatening complication of uveitis, more frequent in posterior uveitis. Hypoxia, release of vascular endothelial growth factor and other mediators seem to be involved in its pathogenesis. Multimodal imaging including the recent optical coherence tomography angiography greatly aid in diagnosis and management. Management of these neovascular membranes consists of anti-vascular growth factor agents, with or without concomitant anti-inflammatory and/or corticosteroid therapy. Besides effective eradication of inflammation in uveitis, the ideal therapeutic goal should include timely detection and treatment of inflammatory CNVM, as the ultimate visual outcome would depend on the control of both
