UK Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration Database. Report 6: time to retreatment after a pause in therapy. Outcomes from 92 976 intravitreal ranibizumab injections.

CONCLUSIONS: This study provides times to retreatment in eyes with nAMD that have been treatment-free for intervals of 3-12 months and demonstrates the likelihood of repeat therapy within the next year, even after a TFI of 12 months. These outcomes can help plan appropriate follow-up intervals for patients who have been treatment-free for intervals of up to 12 months. PMID: 27030276 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
