Description The observation period in all patients in this group was 24 month. During the observation period, 27 patients with predominantly classical choroidal neovascular membrane underwent 1 to 5 treatments (mean 1.8). Before the treatment the average best corrected visual acuity was 0.696 +/- 0.20 logMAR. At the end of observation period the average best corrected visual acuity was 0.985 +/- 0.39 logMAR. Best corrected visual acuity dropped by 2.88 lines of ETDRS (early treatment diabetic retinopathy study) visual charts. 22 patients with the genuine occult choroidal neovascular membrane underwent during the observation period 1 to 3 treatments (mean 1.5). Average best corrected visual acuity before the treatment was 0.755 +/- 0.25 logMAR. At the end of observation period the average best corrected visual acuity was 0.909 +/- 0.42 logMAR. We found out the decrease of average best corrected visual acuity by 1.55 lines of ETDRS charts.
