Primary Outcome Measures:
- The primary outcome measures for safety and tolerability are the following: • Incidence and severity of ocular adverse events, as identified by eye examination (including visual acuity testing) [ Time Frame: Month 12 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Proportion of patients that lose fewer than 15 letters from baseline at months 6 and 12 as assessed by the number of letters read correctly on the ETDRS eye chart at a starting test distance of 4 meters at months 6 and 12 [ Time Frame: Month 6 and 12 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

| Arms | Assigned Interventions |
|---|---|
| Experimental: ranibizumab |
Drug: ranibizumab
0.5 mg dose of ranibizumab. Treatment will be given at baseline, month 1, and month 2, and then monthly until OCT shows absence of subretinal fluid and FA shows absence of leakage

Detailed Description:
Choroidal neovascularization is a hallmark of angioid streaks, and presumably VEGF-driven. Ranibizumab has been shown to be effective in CNV secondary to age-related macular degeneration. Therefore, we hypothesize that ranibizumab may be efficacious in the treatment of CNV secondary to angioid streaks
