AB  - We report a case of bilateral optic nerve head drusen complicated by choroidal 
      neovascularization (CNV) in the left eye at presentation. The presence of optic 
      disc and macular edema in addition to exudation led to the misdiagnosis of 
      neuroretinitis at an outside medical center. Swept-source optical coherence 
      tomography (SS-OCT) and SSOCT angiography were critical in establishing the 
      diagnosis and follow-up in a noninvasive manner. Secondary CNV associated with 
      optic nerve head drusen responded well to intravitreal injections of 
      anti-vascular endothelial growth factor in the left eye. Asymptomatic 
      nonexudative CNV that developed in the right eye during follow-up regressed 
      spontaneously without treatment. [Ophthalmic Surg Lasers Imaging Retina
