How can you use “neovascularization” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • The peripheral cornea was often thinner than normal with neovascularization.

  • This finding is significant given prior reports that oxidative stress on RPE is an important contributing factor of age-related macular degeneration [ 5 42 ] .
