Macular degeneration is a term that describes a large group of conditions that are collectively the most common cause of irreversible vision loss in the developed world. Approximately one in three people will be affected to some degree by the time they reach 75 years of age.

PSEUDOVITELLIFORM MACULAR DEGENERATION
Retina, 1982Forty-two patients with pseudovitelliform macular degeneration (VMD) were studied. The macular lesions were yellow in color, appeared as a slight elevation at the level of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), were usually 1/4 to 1/2 disc diameter in size and often showed a round or oval shape.

Vitelliform Macular Degeneration
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1977Six patients had macular vitelliform lesions similar to those in Best's vitelliform foveal dystrophy but all had normal electro-oculograms (EOG) and no familial involvement. Two patients had an exudative form of degenerative chroidopathy. The remining four had vitelliform lesions of unknown etiology.

With the "graying of America," the patient population at risk for developing ARMD will continue to grow. As researchers continue to study the cause, pathologic changes, and risk factors associated with the development of this disease, preventive measures and improved treatment options will become available.

Lipofuscin and Macular Degeneration
Nutrition Reviews, 2003The accumulation of the autofluorescent pigment lipofuscin in the retina that occurs with aging has been explained as a side effect of the visual cycle. It occurs when two molecules of all-trans-retinal condense with one molecule of phosphatidylethanolamine in the discs of the rod outer segments, and is followed by uptake into retinal pigment ...

Although the disciform type of senile macular degeneration (SMD) was first recognized in the last century, 1 it was considered an uncommon condition; as recently as 1939, only 130 cases were reported in the literature. 2 The clinical evolution of SMD was not understood, and concepts were based on morphologic findings of advanced cases.

I am surprised to see Drs Trempe 1 and Newsome 2 making the common mistake of referring to doses of zinc without indicating whether they are referring to elemental zinc or complex zinc. For instance, zinc citrate, Zn(C 4 H 4 O 4 ), has a molecular weight of 183.46 and consists of 35.64% zinc.

Chloroquine Macular Degeneration
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1962Chloroquine dihydrochloride and related antimalarial compounds have achieved widespread use in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and discoid lupus erythematosus. The occurrence of ocular toxicity in patients on such therapy is therefore of manifest importance.
