Key Points

The aim is to describe the progression from multiple evanescent white dot syndrome to punctate inner choroidopathy and the subsequent development of choroidal neovascularization.
Detailed analysis of the patient history and clinical signs included in the case report.
Treatment involved oral corticosteroids for punctate inner choroidopathy and intravitreal anti-VEGF injections.
Regular follow-up assessments were planned to monitor disease progression.
Successful management of choroidal neovascularization was achieved with combined therapy.
Long-term favorable clinical outcomes were observed following the treatment approach.
The case highlights potential complications arising after multiple evanescent white dot syndrome.

Implication

A case report shows favorable outcomes in choroidal neovascularization after treatment for punctate inner choroidopathy, highlighting the need for careful monitoring.

Abstract

MEWDS and PIC may share common etiological and pathogenetic mechanisms. PIC may develop sequentially after MEWDS in the same eye, and CNV may be a complication of PIC. A combination of oral corticosteroid therapy for PIC and timely intravitreal anti-VEGF injections for secondary CNV can achieve favorable long-term clinical outcomes. Regular follow-up is necessary for patients with MEWDS to monitor for potential progression to PIC and CNV.
