Polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) is currently treated with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapies and photodynamic therapy (PDT). However, there are many cases, which cannot undergo any treatments due to various reasons practically but preserve good vision over years. The purpose of this study is to compare visual outcomes of eyes with PCV with and without prompt treatments.
