[Age-related macular degeneration--contemporary possibilities of treatment].
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a complex multifactorial disease, that affects the central region of the retina. AMD is a leading cause of blindness among people over 50 years of age in the industrialized world. Two types of macular degeneration exist, the "dry" form and the "wet-neovascular" form. Neovascular AMD is responsible for 80-90% of cases of severe, irreversible central vision loss in patients over 65 years of age with AMD. The authors present contemporary possibilities of treatment of the patients with this disease.
