Figure 11. Occult choroidal neovascularization
A. Red-free photograph of right macula showing subretinal fluid surrounded by lipid (arrows), overlying apparent choroidal neovascularization.

B. Angiogram demonstrates occult choroidal neovascularization with staining of irregularly elevated area of retinal pigment epithelium and poorly demarcated leakage in the late phase in which the exact boundaries of the neovascularization cannot be determined with certainly.

C. Area of fluorescein staining corresponds to a 100 µm-thick scar with a 10 µm non-vascularized subretinal and 90 µm vascularized intraBruch's membrane components. Periodic acid Schiff, x25.

D. Area shows a single source of neovascularization (asterisk) from the choroid through a defect in Bruch's membrane (between arrows). Periodic acid Schiff, 40.
