Popis: Purpose. To evaluate efficacy of angiogenesis inhibitor ranibizumab (Lucentis, Novartis, Switzerland) in treatment of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in patients with chronic central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR). Material and methods. The object of study was 11 patients (8 men and 3 women, 11 eyes) aged from 41 to 50 years with CNV on the background of chronic CSCR. All monitored patients underwent 3 consecutive “loading” intravitreal Lucentis injections is either 0.5 mg in 0.05 mL once a month. Results. After 3 months, all studied patients had complete obliteration of CNV. At the same time, the central retinal thickness was 224.5±13.3 µm, which did not differ significantly from norm (p
