Study to Investigate the Safety and Efficacy of Ranibizumab in Patients With Choroidal Neovascularisation Due to Causes Other Than Age Related Macular Degeneration

Summary

The investigators hypothesize that it is safe and effective to treat patients with choroidal neovascularisation (abnormal blood vessels growing under the retina) secondary to causes other than age related macular degeneration (AMD) and pigment epithelial detachments (blisters of fluid under the retina) secondary to AMD with ranibizumab (Lucentis). These groups of patients have to date been excluded from the multicentre trials demonstrating significant benefit of Ranibizumab in the treatment of AMD.
