Purpose: To analyze anatomical and visual outcomes after subretinal surgery for peripapillary choroidal neovascularization (CNV) not associated with age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Methods: Five eyes from five patients with peripapillary CNV who had been treated by subretinal surgery were retrospectively analyzed. Results: The patients averaged 32 years of age (range, 11 to 49, SD 14.5 years) and mean followup was 31.4 months (range, 8 to 48, SD 20.8 months). Best corrected visual acuity was 0.05 (range, 0.001 to 0.16, SD 0.07) before surgery and 0.64 (range, 0.2 to 0.9, SD 0.26) after surgery (p=0.005;
