It is associated with a high incidence of choroidal neovascularization (CNV). Vision loss occurs mainly due to CNV development, and treatment options include systemic steroids, laser photocoagulation, interferon [beta]1[alpha], and submacular surgery. We report a case of punctate inner choroidopathy and discuss the results of intravitreal bevacizumab treatment for CNV. Keywords : bevacizumab, choroidal neovascularization, punctate inner choroidopathy
