Eligibility Criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:
* Significant unilateral or bilateral corneal neovascularization that extending over the limbus at least 2mm
* The underlying etiologies that caused corneal neovascularization included post penetrating keratoplasty (PKP), trauma, infectious or non-infectious corneal ulcer, post-keratoplasty, etc.
* Corneal neovascularization induced lipid keratopathy, corneal edema, or irregular corneal surface. The best-corrected visual acuity was less than 20/25
* Post-PKP corneal neovascularization that had no associated lipid keratopathy, no corneal edema, or corneal irregularity. But the neovascularization was highly possible to cause graft rejection.
* The corneal neovascularization was refractory to other medical treatment
* The patient had received PKP or other corneal surgeries more than half a year ago and was not in the acute post-operation phase
* The patient had no active endopthalmitis, glaucoma with uncontrolled intraocular pressure, or vitreoretinal diseases
* The patient signed inform consent to have regular follow up and treatment
Exclusion Criteria:
* The neovascularization had clinical improvement three months before the first injection
* The lipid keratopathy had clinical improvement three months before the first injection
* The patient that suspected to have poor visual outcome or had already been light sense negative
* Glaucoma patient that had uncontrolled intraocular pressure
* Poor corneal epithelialization
* Post-PKP patient that had graft failure or rejection
* Patient that had systemic disease which was not suitable for bevacizumab use
* Pregnant patient
