Optical coherence tomography angiography in dry age-related macular degeneration
Survey of Ophthalmology, 2018Optical coherence tomography angiography is a new imaging modality that provides noninvasive characterization and quantification of the microvasculature in different retinal conditions. The purpose of this study was to give an updated review of the features of dry age-related macular degeneration investigated by means of new-generation optical ...

Choroidal thickness in dry age-related macular degeneration
Acta Ophthalmologica, 2013Purpose: Evaluating choroidal thickness measurements in patients with dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Material and Methods: The choroidal thickness measurements were performed in 54 eyes of 30 cases with dry AMD using Enhanced depth imaging (EDI) mode of spectral domain optic coherence tomography (SD-OCT), (Heidelberg Engineering ...

Complement therapy in dry age-related macular degeneration
Drug Discovery Today: Therapeutic Strategies, 2013The leading cause of vision loss in industrialized countries is age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and its prevalence is increasing with the ageing of the population. Thus, since dysfunction of the local complement system is associated with AMD, the retinal pigment epithelium–choroid complex is a potential location for the delivery of novel ...

[Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration - Epidemiology and Classification].
Klinische Monatsblatter fur Augenheilkunde, 2019Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is clinically divided into early and late stages. The term "dry" AMD is widely used when there are no "exudative" changes in the ocular fundus. There are numerous studies on the epidemiology of AMD. Most studies differentiate between early and late forms of AMD, but without further differentiation of the "dry ...

Retinal neuroprotection in dry age-related macular degeneration
Drug Discovery Today: Therapeutic Strategies, 2013Dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a slowly progressive visual disorder that is a leading cause for severe visual impairment in the elderly population. Clinical options to prevent disease development and progression are very limited at this time.

Dry Age-Related Macular Degeneration: Recent Progress of Therapeutic approaches
Current Molecular Pharmacology, 2011Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a progressive retinal degenerative disease and a common cause of blindness. In AMD, there are two phenotypes; "atrophic (dry)" and "neovascular (wet)". The former is characterized by the geographic atrophy due to death of retinal pigment epithelium, and the latter is developed due to choroidal ...

Prostaglandin E1 infusion therapy in dry age-related macular degeneration
Prostaglandins, Leukotrienes and Essential Fatty Acids, 2005The pilot study is intended to show whether prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) infusions are able to stop the gradual vision loss in dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and, further, to stabilize or improve visual acuity.With PGE1 infusions 11 patients with different forms of dry AMD were treated and compared with a control group of 10 untreated patients ...

[Pathogenesis of dry age-related macular degeneration: updates].
[Zhonghua yan ke za zhi] Chinese journal of ophthalmology, 2015Dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the major causes of blindness in the elderly population and it is the consequence of interactions of multiple factors. Although the pathogenesis of dry AMD hasn't been fully elucidated, much progress has been made in the genetics, inflammation, oxidative stress, aging of retinal pigment epithelium ...
