Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to determine whether injections of ranibizumab into the eye are safe and well tolerated when given to subjects in multiple doses.
Detailed Description:
Choroidal neovascularization is a hallmark of angioid streaks, and presumably VEGF-driven. Ranibizumab has been shown to be effective in CNV secondary to age-related macular degeneration. Therefore, we hypothesize that ranibizumab may be efficacious in the treatment of CNV secondary to angioid streaks
