  • Title: Clinicopathologic correlation of laser lesion expansion after treatment of choroidal neovascularization.
    Author: Dastgheib K, Bressler SB, Green WR.
    Journal: Retina; 1993; 13(4):345-52. PubMed ID: 7509504.
    Abstract:
    The clinicopathologic features of photocoagulation lesion expansion after two separate sessions of krypton red laser for choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in an eye with age-related macular degeneration are presented. The area of expansion is characterized by retinal pigment epithelial atrophy and loss of the photoreceptor cell layer. A thin margin of retinal pigment epithelium hypopigmentation and variable photoreceptor cell layer degeneration also borders the lesion in some areas.
