Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of intravitreal Aflibercept (IVA) injection therapy, combined with peripheral laser photocoagulation, in the treatment of macular edema caused by Leber's miliary aneurysm. We believe that our study makes a significant contribution to the literature because to our knowledge, it is the first to report cases, in which IVA injection therapy was used to treat this condition.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* FA revealed many aneurysms with leakage in the temporal mid-peripheral retina and near the macula. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed moderate to marked cystoid macular edema and subretinal fluid. There were no abnormal findings in the cornea, anterior chamber, or lens. No particular lesions were found in the opposite eye of each subject. Based on these findings, the patients were diagnosed with Leber's miliary aneurysm.
