Abstract
We present two cases of neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) with near-infrared reflectance (NIR) findings to analyze if the number of choroidal abnormalities increases over time. During a 3-year follow-up period, NIR findings showed no change in the choroidal lesions in one patient, while those in the second patient increased. Our findings may contribute to a better understanding of the natural course of NF1.
