摘要：

PURPOSE. To report a case of bilateral choroidal neovascularization (CNV) associated with optic nerve drusen (OND) treated with photodynamic therapy (PDT) with verteporfin. METHODS. A 10-year-old girl with juxtapapillary CNV in the right eye and juxtapapillary and juxtafoveal CNV in the left eye associated with OND underwent PDT with verteporfin in both eyes. RESULTS. Visual acuity increased from 201160 to 20125 in the right eye and from 2011000 to 20125 in the left eye after two sessions of PDT and 2 years of follow-up. CNV showed no leakage after two PDT sessions in both eyes and no recurrence was observed. CONCLUSIONS. Subfoveal CNV is an uncommon complication of OND and excellent anatomic and functional results can be obtained with PDT.
