ABSTRACT:
A method of performing angiography of the occular fundus of an eye of a patient includes the steps of injecting intravenously calcein into the patient in an effective amount immediately prior to angiography and performing angiography on the patient. The invention further discloses a method of performing photocoagulation therapy and/or photodynamic therapy and angiography of the ocular fundus of an eye of a patient which includes the steps of performing photocoagulation therapy, injecting intravenously calcein into the patient in an effective amount immediately prior to angiography, and performing angiography on the patient.
