Abstract
We report the combination of various therapy options in a 58-year-old man diagnosed with bilateral radiation retinopathy and left radiation optic neuropathy. Four mg/0.1 mL triamcinolone acetonide was injected intravitreally in both eyes followed by bilateral photodynamic treatment 2 weeks after. Bilateral panretinal photocoagulation and right focal laser treatment for residual macular edema were performed 2 months later. At 18 months, visual acuity is 20/200 in the right eye and hand motions in the left eye with no signs of active retinopathy.Entities:
