What are the Treatment Options for PFV?

Treatment for PFV depends on the severity of the condition and the specific ocular structures involved. Options may include:
Surgical intervention: In cases where PFV causes significant visual impairment or other complications, surgery may be necessary to remove the abnormal tissue and address associated conditions like cataracts or glaucoma.
Observation: In milder cases where vision is not significantly affected, regular monitoring by an ophthalmologist may be sufficient.
Visual rehabilitation: For children with visual impairment, early intervention with visual aids and therapy can help optimize visual development and function.
