a prospective study of 78 patients , treated with krypton red laser ( krl ) photocoagulation , who had senile macular degeneration ( smd ) and subretinal neovascular membranes ( srnvm ) located within 200u of the center of the foveal avascular zone ( faz ) , was undertaken to determine if complete eradication of the srnvm would minimize the resultant foveal scar size and retain the maximal useful functional vision as compared to untreated fellow eyes with a disciform scar .
