CHOROIDAL NEOVASCULAR MEMBRANE ASSOCIATED WITH SILDENAFIL

Harun Çakmak, Sema Oruç Dündar, Tolga Kocatürk
ABSTRACT
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a serious problem among men aged 40 years and older. Sildenafil is used in the treatment of ED. Here, we report a case of choroidal neovascular membrane (CNVM) associated with sildenafil use. A 53 year old male patient presented with bilateral CNVM first in the right eye and then in the left after sildenafil intake. A detailed ocular examination was performed, including dilated biomicroscopic examination of the retina and additional evaluation included color fundus photography with fluorescein angiography. This is the first reported case of CNVM in a patient after sildenafil intake. Although a cause-and-effect relationship is difficult to prove, patients should be warned about the side-effects and against misuse of this agent.
