Intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor therapy for choroidal neovascularization secondary to laser pointer injury in a child

Laser pointers are readily available and are often labeled as toys. A 12-year-old girl was brought to the emergency department complaining of a central scotoma in the right eye after being exposed to a laser pointer. Fundus examination revealed severe maculopathy in both eyes. Optical coherence tomo...
