Subfoveal Nodule Affecting Visual Prognosis in Coats' Disease

CONCLUSION: This study is the first study covering the analysis of subfoveal nodules in Korean patients with Coats' disease. The existence of a subfoveal nodule at the initial diagnosis serves as an indicator predicting the development of macular fibrosis and a less favorable visual outcome in the patients with Coats' disease. A multi-center study with a larger patient pool and further studies toward the therapeutic approach for the subfoveal nodule and macular fibrosis are needed.PMID:38115671 | DOI:10.3341/kjo.2023.0111
