SUBRETINAL DRUSENOID DEPOSIT IN AGE-RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION: Histologic Insights Into Initiation, Progression to Atrophy, and Imaging. [PDF]
Purpose: To clarify the role of subretinal drusenoid deposits (SDD; pseudodrusen) in the progression of age-related macular degeneration through high-resolution histology. Methods: In 33 eyes of 32 donors (early age-related macular degeneration, n = 15; geographic atrophy, n = 9 ...

Prevalence and determinants of subretinal drusenoid deposits in patients’ first-degree relatives [PDF]
Abstract Purpose Subretinal drusenoid deposits (SDDs) are distinct extracellular alteration anterior to the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Given their commonly uniform phenotype, a hereditary predisposition seems likely. Hence, we aim to investigate prevalence and determinants in patients’ first-degree relatives.

SUBRETINAL DRUSENOID DEPOSITS IN NON-NEOVASCULAR AGE-RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION [PDF]
To characterize the morphology, prevalence, and topography of subretinal drusenoid deposits, a candidate histological correlate of reticular pseudodrusen, with reference to basal linear deposit (BlinD), a specific lesion of age-related macular degeneration, and to propose a biogenesis model for both lesion.Donor eyes with median death-to-preservation ...

Microstructure of subretinal drusenoid deposits revealed by adaptive optics imaging
Subretinal drusenoid deposits (SDD), a recently recognized lesion associated with progression of age-related macular degeneration, were imaged with adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (AO-SLO) and optical coherence tomography (AO-OCT). AO-SLO revealed a distinct en face structure of stage 3 SDD, showing a hyporeflective annulus surrounded ...

Visual function in aging and age-related macular degeneration including subretinal drusenoid deposits [PDF]
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of visual impairment in the developed world among people over 50 years of age. Although AMD is clinically characterised by the presence of drusen, subretinal drusenoid deposits (SDD) have also ...

Internal Carotid Artery Stenosis and Ipsilateral Subretinal Drusenoid Deposits [PDF]
Subretinal drusenoid deposits (SDDs) in age-related macular degeneration (AMD) are strongly associated with vasculopathies such as myocardial infarction and ischemic stroke. This study evaluates ischemic stroke subjects for SDDs to determine whether ocular hypoperfusion from internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis is associated with ipsilateral SDDs.A ...

Exploratory Study on Visual Acuity and Patient-Perceived Visual Function in Patients with Subretinal Drusenoid Deposits [PDF]
Purpose: To investigate the value of visual acuity and patient-perceived visual function test when subretinal drusenoid deposits (SDD) are incorporated into the classification of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). A total of 50 participants were recruited into the study in these groups: healthy ageing (n = 11), intermediate AMD (iAMD) with no SDD (
