A 79-year-old male patient with non-exudative macular neovascularization (ne-MNV) in the right eye that became active within three months of initial presentation. (a) Swept-source OCT angiography (SS-OCTA) showing a 0.79 mm2 in a 4.5 × 4.5 mm scan corresponding to the color-coded B-scan with semi-automated segmentation lines (blue). The green line measures a shallow irregular retinal pigment epithelial elevation (SIRE) of 1284 μm in length. Above the SIRE a subretinal hyperreflective material (SHRM) is visible, which (b) persists throughout the follow-up. The corresponding OCT B-scan from the spectral-domain device is shown in panel B to improve visualization of the SIRE. (c) After 80 days this ne-MNV becomes active with subretinal fluid slightly inferior to the foveal umbo and was treated with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF).
