Objective:  To describe the favorable clinical outcome in a case with bilateral choroidal neovascular membrane and quiescent Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) syndrome by administering bilateral intravitreal aflibercept injections.   Case report:  A 30-year-old woman was diagnosed with VKH syndrome at another institution and had been in remission with oral mycophenolate mofetil for two years. However, nearly simultaneous right juxtafoveal and left subfoveal type 2 choroidal neovascular membrane was detected two years after the initial diagnosis. The right eye (OD) received three and the left eye (OS) received four aflibercept injections within a time span of eight months. Visual acuity was 20/30 in OD and 20/25 in OS at the last follow-up visit.   Conclusion:  Although suppression of inflammation is a must in eyes with inflammatory type choroidal neovascular membranes, anti-VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor) therapy with agents, such as aflibercept in the present case, is a key therapeutic adjunct and may possibly help improve the visual prognosis.
