Imaging of Neovascular Membrane Over a Choroidal Osteoma by OCT Angiography

A 26-year-old man presented with a 5-month history of blurry vision, photopsia, and metamorphopsia of the right eye. Retinal examination showed a geographic orange-yellow calcified macular lesion, with retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) mottling and subtle hemorrhage (Fig 1A), suggesting a choroidal neovascular membrane (CNVM). An OCT angiography (OCTA) showed an increased capillary density (Fig 1B and C, white arrows), identifying a juxtafoveal CNVM along the edge of the tumor, at the level of the choroid capillary plexus (Fig 1B) and the external plexiform layer (Fig 1C).
