Introduction Traumatic choroidal neovascularization (CNV) occurs in patients with choroidal rupture following severe ocular injuries [1]. Compared to CNV in age-related macular degeneration (AMD) the course of traumatic neovascular membranes is relatively benign [1]. As choroidal neovascularizations are a consistent part of the ocular repairmechanism they usually regress spontaneously as part of the healing process . The formation of persistent CNV with substantial loss of central vision happens in 5-25% of eyes with choroidal ruptures
