Abstract
We report a case of a high myopic patient, treated with photodynamic therapy for macular neovascularization in the presence of silicon oil. Four months later, the patient's vision was again at 4/40, with no active neovascularization. Retinal detachment and macular neovascularization are common complications in high myopia patients. Sometimes these two conditions occur simultaneously and their treatment can become more problematic. We report the case of a high myopia patient treated with photodynamic therapy for subfoveal neovascularization through a vitreous cavity filled with silicone oil. The treatment was successfully completed with no problems. Photodynamic therapy can be achieved successfully through a vitreous cavity filled with silicone oil.
