•All types of CNV lesions present in the study eye
•BCVA must be between >= 24 and <= 83 letters in the study eye tested at 4 meters starting distance using ETDRS like visual acuity charts
•Visual loss in the study eye should only be due to the presence of any eligible types of CNV based on ocular clinical, as well as FA

•Confirmed intraocular pressure >= 25 mmHg for any reason at screening
•Neovascularization of the iris or neovascular glaucoma at screening
•CNV secondary to PM or wAMD
•Use of any systemic anti-VEGF drugs within 6 months before baseline

- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method BCVA change from baseline by visit up to Month 2 in study eye (ranibizumab as compared to sham treatment) The change in BCVA will be presented by each visitTimepoint: 1.Baseline, Month 2 <br/ ><br>2.(BSL, Month 1, Month 2);Change in central subfield thickness (CSFT) and central subfield volume (CSFV) in study eye from baseline over time to Month 2.CSFT and CSFV will be assessed by optical coherence tomography (OCT).Timepoint: Baseline, Month 2;Presence of active chorioretinal leakage assessed by FA at Month 2.The presence of active chorioretinal leakage will be assessed by photography imaging (i.e.FA).Timepoint: Month 2;Presence of intra-/sub-retinal fluid in study eye at Month 2.The presence of intra-/sub-retinal fluid will be assessed by OCT images.Timepoint: Baseline, Month 2
