Long-term effect of fluid volumes during the maintenance phase in neovascular age-related macular degeneration in the real world: results from Fight Retinal Blindness!

Higher treatment frequency for SRF and PED may result in comparable treatment outcomes. Quantification of macular fluid in all compartments is essential to detect eyes at risk of aggressive disease.PMID:37989493 | DOI:10.1016/j.jcjo.2023.10.017
