Choroidal neovascularization following laser pointer-induced macular injury: case report and overview
Version 1Abstract The purpose is to report a case of laser pointer-induced maculopathy and to describe its characteristics using spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), further the outcome of treatment with intravitreal injections. A 35-year-old man presented with a 6-day history of central vision loss in his right eye (RE) after an accidental laser pointer discharge (wavelength of 532 nm).
