Ranibizumab in patients with dense cataract and proliferative diabetic retinopathy with rubeosis
A 43-year-old African American male with a history of DM, CHF, and hypertension treated with medications. He had received PRP for PDR in the past and also had a history of chronic open angle glaucoma. He completed study through the month -3 visit and subsequently withdrew from the study. NVI was resolved by the fourth day after the initial ranibizumab injection with no recurrence noted in subsequent visits. His ETDRS BCVA improved from 20/200 at baseline to 20/80 at month -2 and 20/100 at month -3.
