Multimodal imaging of epiretinal neovascularization associated with type 3 macular neovascularization.

PURPOSE: To report a case of type 3 macular neovascularization presenting with an epiretinal neovascularization.

METHODS: Case report.

RESULTS: A 65-year-old gentleman presented with complaints of reduced vision in the left eye (LE) having a best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) of 20/200. Based on fundus examination and multimodal imaging findings he was diagnosed with type 3 macular neovascularization (MNV). An additional unusual finding was the presence of an epiretinal membrane (ERM) and epiretinal neovascularization (ERN), with the latter finding being confirmed on optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA). He underwent three doses of intravitreal ranibizumab injection following which there was reduction in the epiretinal vascularity.

CONCLUSIONS: Multimodal imaging of this case highlights the presence of epiretinal neovascularization associated with type 3 MNV, which has not been reported previously.
