Bilateral juxtapapillary choroidal neovascularization secondary to Birdshot chorioretinopathy—case report

Abstract

Abstract Central vision loss, photopsia, floaters, and macular edema in a highly myopic patient can easily be misinterpreted as high myopia complications. In atypical cases, detailed examination and a thorough diagnostic workup are required to establish the proper diagnosis, which is often beyond the scope of diagnoses initially considered.
