RANIBIZUMAB AND AFLIBERCEPT FOR THE TREATMENT OF PIGMENT EPITHELIAL DETACHMENT IN NEOVASCULAR AGE-RELATED MACULAR DEGENERATION: Data from an Observational Study

Conclusion: Eyes with neovascular age-related macular degeneration and RPED showed significant functional and anatomical responses after 6 months of intravitreal anti–vascular endothelial growth factor injections. However, we found no significant difference in anatomical response or change in visual acuity between eyes treated with ranibizumab compared with aflibercept. Larger, prospectively designed, randomized studies with longer term follow-up may identify a difference between the two drugs that we did not detect.
