Choroidal neovascular membranes (CNVM) are new blood vessels that grow beneath the retina and disrupt vision. These blood vessels grow in an area called the choroid, the area between the retina and the sclera (the white part of your eye).

Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) involves the growth of new blood vessels that originate from the choroid through a break in the Bruch membrane into the sub–retinal pigment epithelium (sub-RPE) or subretinal space. CNV is a major cause of visual loss.Dec 6, 2021

Today, a prosthetic eye is generally made of hard, plastic acrylic. The prosthetic eye is shaped like a shell. The prosthetic eye fits over an ocular implant. The ocular implant is a separate hard, rounded device that is surgically and permanently embedded deeper in the eye socket.May 7, 2021
An ocularist is a thoroughly trained professional skilled in the art of fitting, painting and fabricating custom ocular prostheses.
CNVM is diagnosed through a dilated eye exam followed by a diagnostic imaging procedure called fluorescein angiography. Treatment: Treatment depends upon several factors: size and location of the abnormal blood vessel membrane, and the amount of time since the symptoms began.
The most common causes are age-related macular degeneration (AMD), [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26] presumed ocular histoplasmosis syndrome (POHS), myopic macular degeneration, trauma, and angioid streaks; however, many cases are idiopathic.Mar 1, 2017
Peripapillary choroidal neovascular membranes (PCNM) are defined as a collection of new choroidal blood vessels, any portion of which lies within one disc diameter of the nerve head.
Wet macular degeneration is a chronic eye disorder that causes blurred vision or a blind spot in your visual field. It's generally caused by abnormal blood vessels that leak fluid or blood into the macula (MAK-u-luh). The macula is in the part of the retina responsible for central vision.Dec 11, 2020
