Anti-VEGFs treat symptomatic retinal arterial macroaneurysms

Macular edema and visual acuity improved in eyes with symptomatic retinal arterial macroaneurysms treated with anti-VEGF injections, according to a study.
The improvement can be attributed to anti-VEGFs’ “vasoconstrictive effect and their stabilizing effect on the blood retinal barrier while retinal macroaneurysms are undergoing progressive fibrosis and closure,” J.
