CNV

I was diagnosed with CNV mayopic cnv. Is that a type of Macular degeneration? This site does not clarify that.

  1. CNV myopia, like macular degeneration, may cause loss of central vision. It is treated with anti vegf injections the same as is used for wet macular degeneration. Several in our community have CNV myopia. https://maculardegeneration.net/living/coming-to-terms. Regards, Sharon Moore patient leader

    1. This site is not working right I tried doing a reply!!!!!!!

      1. I am 73yrs old and no one told me this could happen to me, being myopic! I am so afraid it could happen to my other eye which has cataracts and floaters. I am pretty much blind. I have a blurry hole in my vision with wavy lines and loss of color. It is very disorienting. I can no longer make jewelry and I will have to sell my ebike. The worse part is that I have no support no family or friends near me to help me and now after everything that has happened to me, this happens!

        1. Yes it ismCNV
