Study type | Interventional |
The goal of this current study is to prospectively evaluate the influence of a single subconjunctival aflibercept injection on the regression of corneal neovascularization. Twenty patients with corneal neovascularization who are candidates for anti VEGF treatment (by the discretion of a corneal specialist) will be included in this study. The patients will be treated with a single subconjunctival injection of 0.08 ml aflibercept (25 mg/ml) in a single quarter of the conjunctiva, near the limbus in a proximity to the area of pathological neovascularization. Regression of neovascularization will be documented.

---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Regression (change from baseline) of neovascularization clinically assessed by a corneal specialist | Regression of corneal neovascularization as the change from baseline will be assessed at all follow-up times on days 7,14,30,60,90 following injection by the corneal specialist, both by a clinical slit lamp exam to evaluate the area of neovascularization from the entire corneal area (which will be determined clinically by the ophthalmologist), and by performing anterior segment color photography before injection and at the last visit for comparison and documentation purposes. | 3 months (90 days), with repeat assessment at different follow up times at 7,14,30,60 and 90 days. | |
Secondary | Best Corrected Visual Acuity (BCVA) | BCVA will be assessed using a Snellen Chart at all follow-up meetings, and converted to logMAR for statistical analysis. | 3 months |
