Subretinal neovascular membranes located under the fovea typically lead to significant visual loss. Laser treatment has been limited due to the anatomic location of the neovascular process, but surgical removal has been reported with promising results. We surgically removed a long-standing, presumed ocular histoplasmosis syndrome (POHS) subfoveal neovascular membrane that had been present for 10 months in a patient's only functional eye, with unexpected good results. This case suggests that the good visual outcomes achieved by surgically excising smaller subfoveal neovascular membranes early in their natural history also can be achieved in selected patients with more chronic and severe subfoveal neovascular processes.
